Lisboa RSP
The Ergon Lisboa RSP is an homage inspired by work of luthier Rolf Spuler, of Paradis Guitars.
The bookmatched Tamo ash top was kindly provided by the customer, who was an aquaintance of this great guitar builder. A testament to how wondeful works of art can continue to generate more art, even after the original creator is sadly no longer with us.
I was suprised to see the similarity of the curves of our designs when I traced the Lisboa next to the outline he left. I hope this instrument continues the same path of inspiring others, just like Rolf was the inspiration for this guitar.
Thank you,
Adriano Sérgio
