No expense has been spared in the construction or quality control- this is a pro quality instrument that, if well cared for, could last a lifetime and beyond. The grand symphony body shape offers great projection and responds well to dynamics, its solid Sitka Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back and sides give a healthy balance of warmth and brightness.
