The Deluxe Coimbra Fado Guitar from the house of Thomann takes you to back in time to the golden days of 19th century Portuguese music. The top of this instrument is made from quality spruce, a tonewood variety widely preferred for its robustness. It helps maintain the clarity of sound even when the guitar is under the influence of a heavy attack. The mother of pearl inlays surrounding the soundhole add to the aesthetic appeal of this guitar. The Australian blackwood fretboard provides a responsive taptone. The mahogany neck absorbs string vibrations from the top, thus providing clean and well-rounded tones. The ovangkol wood variety on the back and sides provides a full midrange.
