Antoine Pappalardo C2
A magnificent classical concert guitar by Antoine Pappalardo, a French luthier renowned for his concert instruments—specifically the C1, C2, and Z models. The C2 belongs to the luthier's concert line and is distinguished by its traditional design, meticulous craftsmanship, and a distinctly French tonal character.
This particular instrument features the signature construction of Pappalardo’s C2 models: a cedar soundboard, a cedar neck, an ebony fingerboard, and rosewood back and sides.
The C2 is designed for the classical repertoire and concert performance. It is particularly notable for its balance, the quality of its treble notes, and its rich projection. The raised fingerboard design seen here would later become a signature feature of his "Z" model.
