Pepe Toldo in YouTube about his spirit & innovation in guitars
The model LR5A PT. SOUND REFLECTOR Series was launched on 14th April 2012 in Luthier Guitar shops, Singapore. This model is a combined traditional Alhambra style and enhanced it with patented Sound Reflector by Pepe-Toldo luthier. With PT Sound Reflector at upper side position, this model offers direct acoustic sound reflector pointing toward the player. The sound hole at upper side consist of multiple parallel stripes holes which effectively redirect every single player’s finger plucking tones for natural acoustic feedback during practice or recording. These important feature eliminates completely hesitation over the sound-system feedback quality if you are performing with amplification system and provides you with greater control over tone coloring that reshape the music.
Practising with PT. SOUND REFLECTOR guitar may enhances your tone producing quality as our ears will clearly capture every single timbre differences against different plucking technique & nail’ shape relative to your fingers tips. The innovation of Alhambra PT Sound Reflector delivers new landscape that the normal guitar unable to deliver to and traditionally only pleasing the audience more than for the player’s feedback benefits.
The PT SOUND REFLECTOR impact are described below.
The Alhambra guitars are traditionally well known of it’s power & projection/trajectory capability, the PT Sound Reflector performs as balancing the all 6 string’s projecting power. My test analyses, proved the result with PT Sound Reflector enhance wider dynamic range, richer harmonic especially on trebles part, longer sustain & pitch clarity while reducing the excessive mellow tone traditionally exist in Spanish guitars.
The LR5 PT REFLECTOR SERIES physical traits
High quality workmanship & world class gloss finish, it’s upper side Sound Reflector holes are optimally positioned toward the player and that is my first impression on LR5 PT with higher rosewood quality than the lower model.
Now comes with enhanced quality gold chrome machine heads for more refine tuning quality, new rosette, new head style, a truly new spirit of the Alhambra. This guitar has a semi-D shape neck, with very smooth gloss neck finish adds my comfort feeling that yes it is a decent made guitar, you shall agree with me to treasure good feeling when your left hand hold the neck. The neck thickness is 22mm and nut width = 52.4 mm (although Alhambra’s catalog said 50mm, but we measured it many times none of them have 50mm !!, even the Senorita nut width = 51.35mm), the strings spacing = 42.4mm. The rosette with green/reddish gothic mosaic ornaments, a gorgeous looking one !
