If I’m not mistaken, that guitar was displayed at HGF in 2013. If that’s the case, I have played this guitar - and it convinced me to commission my first Brondel. Outstanding!

"Great sounding" would most likely be understatement of the year

Both Brondels I have played were such a joy to play, amazing fretwork and huge tone from such a small body. Cheers to the lucky new owner.

Default 2013 Brondel A-2C Brazilian and German Spruce

Thanks for your comments. Yes, I was understating what I think the sound of this guitar sounds like. When I purchased, I tried this and at least a dozen+ other high end guitars while there. I originally went with the intent to purchase a Franklin which I had heard great things about. The Franklin OM I tried (also Brazilian and German Spruce) was great sounding, but in the end I bought this one over the Franklin and others... this Brondel felt and sounded really, really good to me.

This guitar and my A-2c with mahogany back and sides pretty much changed how I view guitars. This guitar shouldn't last long . . .
