AJL Guitars / Andreas Öberg Gypsy Fire / 2010's / Guitar
|
I have designed this model together with Andreas. It’s based on Parisian luthier J.Favino's guitars' size and body shape. Our main goal was to cut the unwanted high frequencies and overtones without losing power from the high strings. Andreas also wanted lots of bass response and a big sound. This model is the loudest of all models.
Available as oval hole or a D-hole model. Tuners, woods for back and sides and finishing options as shown on “features” section
Andreas’ personal “Deep Purple” guitar is a D-hole version of this guitar. It also has custom colour and some extra details. Check that model from “custom guitars section”
