Description
Bromo BAA1 is a dreadnought acoustic guitar from the Appalachian Series, featuring a spruce top, mahogany body, and a satin finish.
The Appalachians and the rich tradition of acoustic music and guitar playing from this region were the inspiration for the name of our line for beginner guitarists.
The Appalachian Series is designed to be affordable, yet built for playing pleasure and ease of use. This series offers everything you need to start your musical journey: a great sound, precise intonation, and excellent playability. The solid finish and the surprisingly beautiful tone ensure that you will enjoy this guitar for years to come.
Bromo guitars are built 100% in their own purpose-built factory in Surabaya, Indonesia. Using the knowledge, culture, and resources accumulated over 3 generations, a state-of-the-art workshop has been established there, where advanced techniques meet craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation, to make Bromo the best possible guitars.
