This is the highest model of Yulong Guo, and it showcases Guo’s highest understanding of sound, aesthetics and beauty. It is loud, responsive, comfortable to play, and natural sounding. Yulong Guo went the extra miles with this guitar: the guitar is made of three layers of top, doubled sides and doubled back. The top was inspired by the Australian school and also the German double tops. The result is a guitar with double tops’ volume, while keeping the natural, woody and traditional sound.
The Concert model of Yulong Guo is usually sold for $5,000 +.
The dark spot on the sound board, as shown in the picture, was caused by an air bubble in the wood before it was harvested. It doesn’t have any impact on the sound or stability of the guitar.
