- One of the most special instruments I’ve encountered, and I feel so lucky to have gotten to know it.

This 1994 Daniel Friederich is a step above the rest, sonically and aesthetically.
First, the sound. The basses are magical. More sustain than you could ever ask for, but better yet is how the basses “hum” (as a friend of mine put it), giving you a charming, yet secure feeling when playing them. The trebles - they sparkle, and are equals with the bass in terms of projection and response, which to be honest is a shock after hearing the strength of the basses. When I play this guitar, the sounds of many of my favorite recordings pop into my mind. I think “oh, that’s the sound I was looking for. I’ll leave it at that, and let you see the video so you can see what I mean.
The guitar’s setup is stellar. Low action, with room to go even lower (although it’s already lower than the 4mm/3mm standard). Something confuses me about this guitar - while the neck certainly fills your hand, it is extremely comfortable. I find myself squeezing less, and just lightly “holding on” for the ride.
The condition of this guitar is quite rare. As you’ll see in the video where I explain this, it was primarily owned by one person most of its years, who bought it from Daniel Friederich himself. The only blemish on this guitar is the dark spot underneath the 6th string, which was from some polish that was left on a cloth, that was rested on top of the guitar, and closed inside the case for many years. Aaron Green represented this guitar in the past, and touched this little spot up, along with what looks to be a couple of tiny marks in the usual spot under the strings. There are no cracks, repairs, or dings! The french polish on the back and sides also looks stellar.
52mm
650mm scale
All standard specs!
Not to be forgotten are the Rodgers tuners which work super well that are included with this guitar. Also included are the (far less superior) original Fustero tuners, which I have inside the Rodgers box.
Please see video below, and it’s worth noting that there are several other great video’s online of this same 1994 Friederich. They are linked as well in the description of the website at

What strings are used in this video?
Which Barrios piece is that? I'd love to learn it this weekend after I'm done polishing up some stuff.
Vals Nr 4 in G major.
I understand that Friederich has retired---beautiful sounding guitar---I once had an opportunity to evaluate a 1974 Fleta and it was a memorable experience---inspiring ---I am also a luthier and it inspiring for me to think such a sound is possible!!! One of the unusual things about the Fleta was that at that time he could have used Brazilian or Indian at about the same price and Fleta choose Indiana.
Daniel Friederich too preferred Indian over Brazilian rosewood.
