Action 4.1mm at the low E 2018 Fernando Mazza Cedar Pau Ferro Comments Master builder Fernando Mazza from Italy is a pleasure to play, listen to  and look at, given his high standards of excellence.   We are pleased to announce representation of Fernando’s work here in the USA.  This is his highest level of build, his Millenium model, with a Cedar top, lattice braced, and a multi-laminated Pau Ferro back and sides with an additional layer of interior Wenge adding overall stiffness to the top, creating a resonant and active soundbox that is a wonder to hear and play.  He has added an elevated fretboard with a 20th fret extension, and an armrest of Black Carob for supreme comfort.  A fitted Port Hole Cover gives you flexibility in using it or not.  Beautiful choices.  His workmanship is excellent as is his overall engineering of the guitar.  Additional notes from Fernando regarding the guitar are below.  Note that the guitar has no Rosewood thus no legal issues.  Nice!  Photography of the back and sides allowed my a “Nice!” as I gazed on the beautiful grain patterns of the guitar.  Gods, she is gorgeous! Luthier: Fernando Mazza, Year: 2018 Millenium model – Double Back w/Nomex Cedar (lattice top) Multi laminated Pau Ferro back and sides – this is not a Rosewood (smart) Inner layer of the sound box is wenge Elevated Ebony fingerboard with 20th fret German Alpaca medium frets Cedar neck with ebony reinforcement & adjustable truss rod Indian Ebony bridge 12 holes string ties Gotoh tuners Bone saddles Ebony & white oak marquetry Black carob tree armrest Handcrafted rosette Matte polyurethane finish ____________ Media Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended including EQ manipulation, if possible. We record everything flat with just a touch of Reverb to relieve dryness. My goal is to record the guitar as realistically as is possible. I speak in the recordings, my thoughts about the guitar (and possibly other things?).  My speaking also serves to give you my first impressions and to also give you a balance of the engineering (or lack thereof) versus the sound of the guitar.  I simply do not have time to engineer much of anything.  Thanks. Rich MP3 Audio – 200618-Fernando Mazza 2018 Cedar Pau Ferro – I was going to do a video today, Sunday, with the guitar. I used it to warm-up and practice a touch, where I lost myself in the power and the voice of this guitar.  From quiet intimacy to raw power, the guitar did everything I needed.  Now that I was warmed up and good to go, I had to leave before I could record anything.  This is an exceptional guitar. https://www.savageclassical.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/200618-Fernando-Mazza-2018-Cedar-Pau-Ferro.mp3 ——— More MP3 Audio – Brian Dooley came into the gallery to do some video work.  A talented and expressive player.  This is the MP3 (unedited) of the upcoming video, which should be uploaded within a week or two.  This is Bach from BWV 995 in A Minor “Allemande” Brian-Dooley-Fernando Mazza 2018 Cedar Pau Ferro-Bach-Allemande-995 https://www.savageclassical.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/180716-Brian-Dooley-Fernando-Mazza-2018-Cedar-Pau-Ferro-Bach-Allemande-995.mp3 My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested. https://savageclassical.com/product/richard-f-sayage-solo-guitar-works-volume-1/ Video Brian Dooley performs Bach Allemande BWV 995 in A Minor ____________ Shipping: Premium Single Arch Top or Double Arch HSC is included in your purchase price.
