Description: Raimundo Thu Le Classical Guitar

This Raimundo Thu Le classical guitar is a Signature edition model made by Raimundo guitars for the prestigious guitarist Thu Le on a close collaboration with the artist.

This unique and incomparable instrument, has evolved from almost two years of working side by side – merging the experience and expertise of the Raimundo workshop in Spain, together with the undisputed talent of one of the most renowned guitarists in the world.

Thu Le had it clear from the very beginning.

She wanted to capture all her knowledge acquired throughout her successful career and transform it into a unique guitar. She wanted to be able to transmit her passion for the guitar through this personalised model, so that everyone who played it could feel it.

True to her origins, she wanted to reflect the characteristic elements of Vietnam, her country of origin. The top of Thu Le' s signature guitar has a shape reminiscent of a lotus flower, matching the label on the inside of the guitar.

The colour red also had to be present in her guitar, and so we chose to use this colour in various aspects of the guitar such as the profiles, rosette and bridge decoration.

Carefully selected sustainable woods including Canadian cedar, Mongoy and African ebony have been used.

All to produce the sound sought by Thu Le - a traditional and powerful acoustic, high treble levels, deep and warm basses with rich harmonics.

All this makes this signature guitar an easily recognisable instrument, not only because of its wonderful sound but also because of its unmistakable design.
