Grand Auditorium steel-string with massive alpine spruce top, with back and sides out of laminated rosewood.
Many details contribute to the substantial impression: neat paintwork, genuine wooden bindings, ebony fingerboard, accurate fret work. The fingerboard width of 45 mm at the saddle is congenial for guitarists who also like to play finger-style and appreciate somewhat more space. Alongside the reputable selection of material and the good processing, the sound of the Duke Grand Auditorium is a reason for joy. The instrument sounds in an extremely confident and mature manner, offering an astounding amount of sound culture. For amplified use, a system by Shadow has been built in, consisting of a hexaphonic piezo-pickup under the nut and the appropriate pre-amp.
