Altamira - L'Orfeo 7/8 EN + Étui

The Altamira L'Orfeo 7/8 EN is for guitarists looking for a real concert guitar in a slightly more compact, comfortable format. With its 7/8 size, it is particularly suited to musicians who want to maintain a fluid playing feel without losing the depth and richness of sound expected of a good top-of-the-range classical guitar. Whether you're working for hours on end, playing in conservatories or preparing for live performances, this format offers real comfort.

The solid cedar top gives a warm, immediate response under the fingers. The attack remains soft but precise, with round basses and singing trebles. The solid Madagascar rosewood back and sides add depth and harmonic reserve, which is very pleasing when playing classical pieces, modern arrangements or arpeggios.

The Spanish cedar neck and African ebony fingerboard feel stable and natural in the hand. Movements are fluid, particularly in technical passages or nuanced playing requiring a great deal of control. The S-shaped bracing also contributes to the responsive, open sound.

With its natural high-gloss finish and meticulous craftsmanship, the L'Orfeo 7/8 EN looks elegant without being overdone. Its included case makes it easy to take with you to rehearsals, lessons or concerts.
