Koa Classical Guitar Back and Sides Set MB Exclusive Nº 03

This Koa (Acacia koa) back and sides set for classical guitar MB Exclusive Nº 03 is a one-of-a-kind piece, consisting of a back and its matching sides, selected together and sold exactly as shown. The piece you choose is exactly the one you receive: a unique and exclusive set intended for a single, individual instrument.

Koa is a tonewood used in lutherie for backs and sides, valued for its direct response and overall balance. In classical guitars it delivers clear mids, controlled projection and a natural sense of warmth without losing definition, as described through well-established experience in lutherie, both in the use of Koa for backs and sides and in its interaction with different soundboards. Visually, it features golden brown tones with darker grain lines and a pronounced curly figure, giving the instrument a distinctive and immediately recognisable appearance.

Why Choose an MB Exclusive One-of-a-Kind Piece?

Each MB Exclusive set corresponds to a single available unit and is delivered exactly as shown, reinforcing the exclusive nature of the piece and its use in a truly individual instrument.
