The cutaway is the greatest breakthrough in guitar construction. My cutaways are the best sounding on the planet. You could never tell she is acuaway such is the power that she emanates. The Fabulous Minas Gerais cut (Brazil) had been air drying for 92 years for me to build this epic babe. Fabulous grain and a figure that will simply hypnotize you. Matched by a Hauser braced cedar top from. The Russianh rosette and marquetry was the choice to melt every part and the gabon ebony bindings add a touch of prestige few instruments can match. I chose Asturias to show the personality, power and projection of this amazing cutaway. She elevates the piece to a whole new level, one of grandeur and true Spanish spirit. A slight change in the angle of attack of the right hand will immediately translate in a change in the sound color...simply amazing. Again, 640mm radius and a cutaway makes guitar playing natural and A LOT EASIER that whatever you have been suffering on until today. Do not let this babe go !

640mm or 650 mm

Radiused or flat fingerboard?

Radiused or flat fingerboard?
The radiused fingerboard has been around the acoustic and the electric guitar since day one. The same is true for most instruments of the Stringed family of instruments (violas, violins cellos, bass). Radiusing (image above) makes barre and left hand stopping A LOT easier. The only drawback is that you will NEVER want to play a flat fingerboard after that. If you are having your custom guitar built, I am all pro radiusing the fingerboard. The standard fingerboard is flat.

640mm or 650 mm?
Regarding 650mm or 640 mm guitar construction, keep the following rule at hand: If the distance between the tip of your thumb and the tip of your little finger is equal or less than 9 in. when fully stretched, use 640 mm. Adapting from one scale to the other takes no adaptation
