Fredholm / Thomas Classical Brazilian Spruce / 2006 / Guitar

Swedish guitar maker Thomas Fredholm began making steelstring guitars in the 1980s but when the steelstring market crashed he got into making classical guitars. He did this for over 20 years before returning again to the old C.F. Martin tradition of making steelstring guitars. His classical guitars however remain very popular amongst nylon-stringed enthousiasts and artists worldwide. His instruments have been played by several world-renowned artists like John Dearman, David Russell and even Andy Summers. Fredholm is also one of the ‘foreign’ guitar makers mentioned in the book "The Guitar Makers of Granada" having spent some time in the famous guitar-making city to absorb the craft. This 2006 concert classical is testament to the build- and tonal qualities of his instruments. It was constructed using traditional fan bracing and an elevated fretboard providing the instrument with a very powerful and warm character. The instrument uses Brazilian rosewood for both the 3-piece back (nicely matched) and sides, a formidable tonewood especially in combination with the carefully selected featherlight European spruce top. Other features include a comfortable cedar neck, gold tuners with ebony buttons, ebony fretboard, rosewood bridge and stunning wooden bindings surrounding the body and the soundhole. All of this is finished using a thin layer of French Polish finish giving the tonewood ample of room to "breathe" adding to the powerful, responsive and deep sound. The condition of this guitar is excellent with nailmarks and signs of use primarily in the delicate top finish. 650mm (25 9/16") scale length, 52mm (2 1/16") nutwidth. Includes hardshell case and CITES.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
