The Vintage 'Viaten' is another stunning instrument from the Paul Brett Series of small bodied acoustic travel guitars.
With a distinct style of its own, the Vintage Viaten has all the emotions of early 4 string guitars with roots that go back more than a century, but with a modern approach within playability and sound that amateur and professional players will appreciate.
Renowned for their size-defying volume and distinct tone, tenor guitars have become very popular with modern day musicians around the world, and can be heard in a host of music styles from pop to jazz, country and folk.
For its natural clarity, sparkle and nuance, solid Sitka spruce has been specifically chosen for the Viaten’s soundboard, perfect for fingerpicking, chord shapes and solo notes.
This clean, rich and well balanced tone, is complete with the petite body constructed from high quality sapele, a popular tonewood for small bodied acoustic guitars and renowned for its strong low-end warmth, midrange punch and top end definition.
These exceptional tonal qualities are enhanced with a Graph Tech NuBone saddle and precision cut nut.
Eye catching features include maple body bindings and detailed purfling, mirrored within the intricate rosette design, open-geared, smooth action machine heads and functional pin style bridge design for effortless string changing.
If you know how to play guitar, you'll know how to play a tenor.
If you are a beginner, the Viaten is the perfect introduction to the Vintage Paul Brett Series of stunning acoustic travel guitars, with their unique voice, tone and stunning playability.
