Built in the Netherlands by master luthier John van Gool, this Concert No. 1 model represents the pinnacle of his craftsmanship and attention to tonal detail. Van Gool’s guitars are known for their balance, projection, and refined musicality—qualities that have earned him a respected place among European classical guitar makers.

This 2005 Concert No. 1 features an Alpine spruce top paired with Indian rosewood back and sides, producing a tone that is both warm and articulate, with rich overtones and exceptional dynamic response. The Cedrela neck with an ebony fingerboard ensures effortless playability, while the traditional fan bracing enhances resonance and sustain across the tonal spectrum.

Elegant in its simplicity, the natural gloss finish highlights the beauty of the tonewoods and the precision of Van Gool’s handwork. This example remains in excellent condition, with only light signs of use and no structural issues. A world-class concert instrument that offers both refinement and expressive depth for the serious classical guitarist.

Includes a gigbag with TFOA passport.
