Lissarrague is one of the most talked-about names in the modern guitar world, known for building instruments that rival Greg Smallman in power while offering their own distinctive character. Many of my professional colleagues rave about his guitars for their projection, sustain, and expressive palette, and after playing this one it is easy to see why.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"931\" data-end=\"1562\"\u003eFrom the very first notes, you are met with a huge, immediate sound that requires little effort from the right hand. The guitar practically sings on its own, rewarding both light touches and bold dynamic playing. Sustain is remarkable, with a natural swell to individual notes that makes long lines and lyrical repertoire feel effortless. While often celebrated for their volume, Lissarrague’s guitars also reveal a wide palette of tonal colors once you spend a bit of time adjusting your approach. Subtle variations in attack and hand position unlock shimmering ponticello brightness, deep tasto warmth, and everything in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1564\" data-end=\"1965\"\u003ePhysically, this guitar is a substantial instrument. Like a Smallman, it is heavy in weight, but that translates to stability in the lap and to a sound that fills a hall with ease. The balance between comfort and projection is enhanced by thoughtful details such as the seamless armrest, thin C-shaped neck profile, and low, responsive action. Every aspect of playability has been carefully dialed in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1967\" data-end=\"1970\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1972\" data-end=\"1988\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1989\" data-end=\"2560\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1989\" data-end=\"2053\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1991\" data-end=\"2053\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1991\" data-end=\"1999\"\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cedar with lattice bracing and carbon reinforcement\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2054\" data-end=\"2133\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2056\" data-end=\"2133\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2056\" data-end=\"2073\"\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Striking Ziricote with dramatic sapwood and slight doming\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2134\" data-end=\"2161\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2136\" data-end=\"2161\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2136\" data-end=\"2153\"\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 650mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2162\" data-end=\"2185\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2164\" data-end=\"2185\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2164\" data-end=\"2178\"\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 52mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2186\" data-end=\"2256\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2188\" data-end=\"2256\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2188\" data-end=\"2197\"\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thin C-shaped profile, very comfortable, with low action\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2257\" data-end=\"2300\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2259\" data-end=\"2300\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2259\" data-end=\"2275\"\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raised, with 20th fret\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2301\" data-end=\"2359\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2303\" data-end=\"2359\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2303\" data-end=\"2314\"\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lightweight design reminiscent of Smallman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2360\" data-end=\"2416\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2362\" data-end=\"2416\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2362\" data-end=\"2374\"\u003eRosette:\u003c\/strong\u003e Elegant signature design by Lissarrague\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2417\" data-end=\"2460\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2419\" data-end=\"2460\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2419\" data-end=\"2430\"\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pagos with black baseplates\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2461\" data-end=\"2560\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2463\" data-end=\"2560\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2463\" data-end=\"2486\"\u003eAdditional Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seamless built-in armrest, highly stable, concert-ready weight and feel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"2562\" data-end=\"2565\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"2567\" data-end=\"2580\"\u003eThe Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2581\" data-end=\"3102\"\u003eThis Lissarrague offers immediacy, power, and sustain that border on effortless.
