Sound Pure's Take
Stunning in every way--looks, sound, and playability. The combination of high grade Adirondack and Figured Mahogany offer the fundamentally balanced but dramatic Grand Concert bodystyle an organic warmth and crisp clarity. It's remarkable to find an instrument that is this precise and clear without a hint of sterility or flatness of tone--the sweetness of the overtone content and richness in the low mids/bass are particularly notable. This GC really adapts to the player, too--punchy and forward or intimate and introspective, different right/left hand approachs can reveal many different levels of this instrument's worldclass personality. A modern masterpiece!
From Goodall Guitars
"The Grand Concert model is one of the world's most perfect guitars"
The Grand Concert model is a refined and beautifully proportioned shape, and is everything you could desire from an acoustic guitar and more. Its tone is a wonderful blend of balanced clarity, and punchy projection, with a smooth rich bass response. This instrument is larger than the Parlor but smaller than the Concert Jumbo. It has a singing lyrical treble, with excellent sustain, and is comfortable to hold. Though it is a small guitar, the Grand Concert does not exhibit the tight nasal tonal quality in the midrange and bass that is generally associated with smaller guitars.
"ideal for the fingerstylist and the flatpicker, with the appropriate tonewoods"
While the Grand Concert series is considered ideal for the fingerstylist due to its sensitive, dynamic responsiveness, it is equally appropriate for the flatpicker or plectrum player with the appropriate tonewood combination. It is prized by Bluegrass flatpickers and has even been said to surpass large-bodied dreadnought guitars with respect to its clarity, sustain, and powerful projection.
