Whenever
I embrace an instrument and feel that I've always owned and played such
instrument, I know I am in the presence of a JEWEL guitar. Such is the
case with this amazing Lattice braced Tasmanian Blackwood concert guitar.
My hands felt at home from the very first chord and producing sound is
like playing with plaster. Amazingly malleable and of immediate response...
it is as if the sound is springed out of the body at an amazing speed...Asturias
flies on this amazing babe...The bass line sparkles and the trebles flow
like water in a fountain... simply marvelous. The playability on the stylized
radiused fingerboard is easy and intuitive. The action is set low at 3,8
mm at fret 12 and the neck is PERFECT ! The set of Tasmanian blackwood
is gorgeously striped with an array of Browns, beiges that move towards
the orange, yellow and white. The rosette, bindings and linings all match
to enhance the parts that bring together this masterpiece of luthery.
