Always dreamed of playing a Friederich but don’t quite have a $50,000 budget? Well….I have a solution. Dominique Delarue, considered widely as the ‘heir apparent’ to the Freiderich legacy, has just completed a marvelous new instrument which is now gracing the shop. Cedar top and Rosewood back and sides, French Polished, 650mm scale. My favorite combination of Dominiques.
She has the voice that has so often invited comparisons between a Delarue and a Friedrich, even though brand new, I can already hear what is in her future as she is played in. The basses are supple and rich, the trebles clear and warm, the voice, even though just ‘out of the box’ already is showing the palette of colors that will unfold even more with playing. A rich, expressive, classic voice in the Friederich style, but for a fraction of the investment.
