It is hard to overemphasize the coolness of this guitar in person.

I was so impressed by Brondel's A2 that I couldn't sleep! Laurent is graciously (or is it a trick to make me love it more???) letting me try out his A2 for few days. I really hope it sucks....(just kidding)....

Cant go wrong with a Brondel, and he is a super cool guy as well...

Laurent's guitars are beautiful! Very good seeing him again at Healdsburg.

Not sure why you'd want one of those things . . .

I can vouch for the Brazilian-backed A-2c at Luthier's Collection, which is the guitar that "hooked" me at Healdsburg. Of course, it carries the Brazilian premium but it sounds oh so good!

I use my A2 with a band. I need easier access to the higher frets.

This really is a stunning guitar. I'd love to hear how it sounds. I've played several of Laurent's guitars and I've been really impressed by their tone and playability. A Brondel remains high on my wish list. Just three more years until I pay off my mortgage and then......
