"Spruce Top Loriente Clarita"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I was able to compare the Spruce and Cedar top Clarita's side by side. Both sounded great. The cedar had a very warm sound, but I ended up buying the spruce due to the bright sound and volume (especially considering that this was a new guitar). Bought it a month ago and just recently changed the strings for the first time. Looking forward to how it breaks in and how it sounds with some Savarez strings. The harmonic capability is also very good, even down to the lower frets you can still get nice volume out of each.

Musical Background:

Student, 8 months, working through Shearer, Guliani, Segovia scales and Carcassi

Musical Style:

Classical music... to learn treble clef and other interesting sounds.
