“”Over the years, I learned that you don’t need to fight the instrument to get the best out of it. I was always searching for the right guitar—a perfect balance of performance, reliability, playability, and quality. That’s when I discovered Aristides. It felt like the perfect fit, and since then, it’s been my main guitar, both live and in the studio.”
