Fingerstyle guitars are definitely one of our specialties, and we've spent a lot of time with different scale lengths, wood combinations, body sizes, and nut widths. From those years of study, we've formed a mental image of what an ideal fingerstyle instrument needs in order to blow us away. This 2006 Beauregard OM--a living example of that ideal. Mario paired a dark-grained set of African Blackwood with Red Cedar, a newer pairing that luthiers are just now experimenting with, and the result is oceanic in its depth, and atmospheric in its clarity.
The bass strings have a fundamentally rich tonality, perfectly balanced with the other registers, which lends the entire voice an enveloping array of colors. The setup is glass-smooth with a 1 25/32" nut and low action for effortless playing--and with an aggressive attack or gentle touch, this Beauregard's voice is teeming with energy and sustain. To describe this guitar as lush in lowered tuning would be an understatement: played in DADGAD, this Beauregard has a profound resonance and harmonic palette.
