Simon Ambridge: Classical handmade guitars made in England by Simon Ambridge which owe their inspiration to the instruments of Antonio de Torres, Santos Hernandez and Hermann Hauser 1.
My guitars are constructed and in a controlled, dry atmosphere using only the finest and carefully selected seasoned tonewoods.
I use European spruce for the soundboards and Brazilian or Indian rosewood for the backs and sides, though I personally prefer Brazilian for its superior density and visual beauty. I have also used flamed maple and bird's eye maple as an alternative to the rosewoods which apart from being very beautiful when finished, produces a slightly dryer tone in the completed instrument.
Necks are Honduras mahogany or cedar and the heads are fitted using the traditional 'V' joint. The heads are faced with ebony or Brazilian rosewood and the centre joint is often inlaid with strips of decorative veneers to match the rosette. The head angle to the neck, at 9 degrees, is fairly shallow but combined with a slightly thicker soundboard creates the ideal string tension. Also the fingerboards are adjusted so that the bass side tapers down slightly towards the soundhole. This allows the height of the strings above the soundboard to remain the same at the bridge and contributes to the ease of playing ...
