General

The Perez 690 Abeto offers the specifications of a professional concert guitar but for a more affordable price. This classical guitar has an all-solid construction, meaning that the entire body is made of solid wood. In this case, it's made of Indian rosewood with a high-quality German spruce top - a combination that gives the Perez 690 Abeto a full, rich, bright sound. Furthermore, the neck is made of cedar to add warmth to the sound and to make the guitar lighter. The neck is equipped with an ebony fretboard, which not only adds a beautiful dark colour to the mix but also adds some extra bite to the trebles.

Perez 690 Abeto: sleek, tasteful finish

It's not only the construction of the Perez 690 Abeto that reveals the excellent craftsmanship that went into its making: the sleek finish indicates it as well. This nylon-string acoustic guitar has the same sleek, smooth finish as its handmade family members from the Luthier series. It's tastefully decorated with multi-layered body bindings that include rosewood, and you'll also notice a beautiful, colourful handmade wooden rosette. A thin layer of lacquer completes the picture and ensures that the guitar will resonate optimally. The Perez 690 Abeto also comes with a rugged, lightweight case so you can keep your guitar optimally protected during transport and when its in storage.

Advantages of solid wood

The most important component of an acoustic guitar is the top, as the top determines the timbre, the way the sound responds and the amount of sustain the guitar provides. The top decides the timbre, the way the sound will respond and the amount of sustain the guitar provides. More sustain means that your notes and chords will sing out longer after they've been played. The sides and back are important as well, as they amplify the sound. When the entire body of a guitar is made of solid wood then the string vibrations are optimally transferred to the body to ensure a full, lively tone with plenty of volume. All of those aspects are of course crucial for a high-quality guitar such as the Perez 690 Abeto.

Perez 690 Abeto classical guitar

Wrote the following about Perez 690 Abeto classical guitar
De gitaar arriveerde in een behoorlijk stoffige koffer. Daar had wat mij betreft eerst een doekje overheen genomen mogen worden.

Hij klinkt zoals je mag verwachten, helder en luid, met hele fraaie boventonen. De gitaar zingt. Intonatie is zuiver. De afwerking is prachtig. Nadelen: hij speelt zwaar, opnieuw afstellen en een iets lichtere set snaren moet dat kunnen verhelpen.

Al met al tevreden met deze aankoop.
