Here are the comments of Dan Kellaway regarding his Dan kellway lattice classical guitars :
“My Lattice braced classical guitar has evolved over two decades to arrive at a significant stage of development.
It is made using only traditional timber but follows many ideas developed by the best modern Australian makers.
No balsa or carbon fibre are used in this construction. I also attempt to limit the weight while still utilizing the molded back and other enhancements.
Engelman’s Spruce is used because it is midway between European Spruce and Western Red Cedar in hardness , strength and tonal qualities.
My aim here is to provide a middle ground between Smallman and Marty with a very sweet tone in a loud full blown concert instrument.
Here is the ultimate lattice braced full bodied Concert Guitar.
This lattice contains no carbon fibre but is instead reinforced where required with cloth tape soaked in glue.
There is no balsa wood used inside this instrument.
The bracing material is the same as the soundboard itself. This uniformity of timber is more sonorous than a mix and provides great clarity and focus on the note.”
