M-53 Premium Aura

As one of the most refined and fascinating tonewoods of all, cocobolo provides the tonal foundation for our M-53 Premium Aura. Combined with an Adirondack spruce top, reinforced by delicate Adirondack spruce bracing, it creates a sound that shines brightly in the fingerstyle firmament. A powerful, floating bass embraces and supports the present mids with remarkable balance. Transparent highs add an almost angelic voice, weaving a rich tonal tapestry that can bring tears of joy to your eyes. The finest craftsmanship is evident in every detail. Whether in the delicate abalone purfling, the precisely mitred decorative lines or the refined fingerboard inlay, this instrument bears the signature of guitar makers with many years of experience and a deep love of detail.
