Altamira - M01TD RN + Étui

The Altamira M01TD RN takes up the codes of Gypsy jazz in a Thinbody version, with a thinner body that changes the feel of the instrument while retaining the sonic identity of the style. The thinner body makes for a more compact grip against the body, giving you a feeling of closeness to the instrument that can be very pleasant over long sessions.

The D-shaped rosette adds to the character of the model. Combined with a responsive construction, it develops a precise sound, with clean attacks and a strong presence in the acoustic register. Despite its slimmer format, this guitar retains surprising volume and a very lively, projected feel.

The solid European spruce top contributes to this rapid response, with well-defined notes. The rosewood back and sides add more depth and harmonic richness, while retaining the dry, articulate feel often sought after in Manouche playing.

The mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, 22 frets and 670 mm scale all contribute to a stable, precise feel. The format is particularly pleasant for rhythmic playing and more melodic passages.

Designed for gypsy jazz, acoustic swing, gypsy waltzes and pick playing with plenty of nuance, the M01TD RN retains the blend of clarity, attack and presence that makes this family of guitars so charming. It comes with a hard case for transport and protection.
