A rare 00 model from Joel Barbeau. A surprisingly loud guitar, despite it's small 14'' wide lower bout. The walnut layered with carbon fiber makes for a very light, yet stiff bridge design, allowing the top to vibrate much more than a heavier bridge would. A dark, rustic stain covers the guitar to give it an old-style flair.
 
Joel Barbeau has been building guitars under his own name since 2012, when he graduated from the Bruand School of Lutherie after having completed a 3-year program. Measuring and fine-tuning each component is an important part of the building process, making sure to improve on each previous model. Specializing in nylon stringed instruments, he strives to build concert instruments suited to the needs of the serious musician that will stand the test of time.
