Dave Ryer Doubletop - 2019
Dave Ryer Doubletop - 2019
Overview
Overview
David Ryer is a Canada based guitar maker. He started repairing guitars for local guitar shops in the 1980s. Later he crafted mainly high-quality acoustic guitars. In 2000 he did an initial training in classical guitar building with Sergei de Jonge which he completed in an extensive apprenticeship some years later. He became a good friend of Sergei and now builds high-end handcrafted acoustic and classical guitars in Ashton, Canada.
This very fine 2019 Cedar double-top guitar is one of the easiest-to-play classical guitars that one can imagine. Thanks to its slightly smaller scale, thin neck, the elevated fingerboard, and the very sensitive double-top, this instrument is suitable for guitarists, who particularly value a comfortable guitar or for players with smaller hands aiming for a true concert guitar. The double-top's inner core is made of feather-light Paulownia wood, in opposition to the usual Nomex composite. This gives the sound a “woody” timbre with a warm tone and a huge projection. The dynamic range, color possibilities and amazing playability of this instrument make it a wonderful concert guitar.

Classical Guitar
The classical guitar, with its soft nylon strings and characteristic timbre, has become a symbol of chamber music, Spanish tradition, and concert repertoire. Its modern form was shaped by Antonio de Torres in the 19th century, setting the standard for the body, fan bracing, and the 65-centimeter scale length that are still used today. Instruments in this category open up a rich palette from the refined Romantic miniatures of Tárrega to the majestic concertos of Rodrigo. Here you will find guitars that preserve historical continuity and at the same time inspire new interpretations.Look all products of the collection -
