Several years ago, whilst on tour in the States we were introduced to Mike Armand through a very close friend. Mike, an established carpenter in Lecompte Louisiana, had just begun a side line to his beautiful furniture making company building a few guitars. He had only built a handful of guitars at this point and they completely blew us away with the build quality, beauty and most importantly the unbelievable sound that they made. His guitars were perfect for the style and way that we play guitar.
On our 2015 Spring Tour to America we spent a couple of days with Mike at his Aubade Guitar Workshop choosing woods and designing our new custom Rosellys guitars. Mike finished 'No 41' and 'No 43' ready for our 2015 Fall Tour, here are some photos of the build process as they developed. We were expecting exceedingly high quality instruments and we were not disappointed. They play and look incredible and they sound even better than they look. We are beyond happy with our new guitars and we fully endorse Aubade Acoustic Guitars.
