2024 Charles and Patrick Cao, Daniel Friederich
650 mm scale, 52 mm nut
Daniel Friederich is in my opinion, the best guitar builder in the world. Balanced, lyrical, crazy long sustain, consistent silky tone, color changes, power, volume…. Everything you need is in a Daniel Friederich, and it is definitely reflected in its price. A peak Daniel Friederich is valued at around $80,000 nowadays. It is almost not affordable anymore.
However, it is not the case with Daniel Friederich replicas. You just have to find the right ones. Here I have the best Friederich replica from China. You can see the incredible craftsmanship, extremely fine level of French polish, and the sound is powerful, refined and very elegant.
This guitar is easier to play than a late/peak era Daniel Friederich. The bracing is all spruce, and slightly lighter weight than the Friederich originals. Honestly, not everyone can handle a late Daniel Friederich, but everyone can enjoy this Cao brothers’ guitar to its fullest.
The Cao brothers are two extremely fine luthiers from China. They believe that there are no better traditional guitars than Friederich, so they bought two Daniel Friederich originals and dedicated their careers and lives replicating the best guitars they know. I must say they are having a lot of success.
