Default Brondel A-1c, Adirondack spruce and Pernambuco, Dead Mint, SOLD!
This is Laurent's slightly larger guitar (larger than his OM-size A-2, anyway). Same lateral arch design and sweet Brondel tone. Playability and finish are exquisite, and you have to love the smooth action of those Alessi tuners. This guitar has a lovely, well-developed bass but with plenty of punch and action in the mids and trebles, which is a signature part of Laurent's sound. The oil varnish finish is gorgeous and really brings the woods to life.

The pernambuco is very high quality: well quartered and straight-grained. There's even some light figuring.
