I’m very happy to share with you my new Marcus Dominelli classical guitar. This is a small scale double top classical guitar with bearclaw spruce top and ziricote back and sides that I commissioned. The guitar is absolutely stunning and the sound has a glowing elegance along with good balanced across the strings. The combination of the smaller scale length and body along with the spruce and ziricote has resulted in a clear elegant sound with a focused clarity along with the responsive playing benefits that many double tops offer. I’m not always a big fan of double tops as I feel some luthiers are leaning too heavily toward creating a loud instrument at the expense of other qualities. Dominelli’s double tops strike an excellent balance between having a responsive guitar while retaining more of the natural sound that one can get from a nice tonewood. I’m super happy with the result and how you enjoy it in my future performances and videos. Here’s the YouTube link if you want to watch it there.
