I fell in love with Port Orford when I first used it a few years ago and
among its amazing characteristics, the one that totally enamored me is
the amazing aroma and fragrance that the species emanates. It literally
submerses you in a deep pine forest and you feel so welcome in it that
you want to call it “ home". My Oregon Wild wood supplier carries some
amazing sets and I knew I had to buy them when I came across them. I had
to build a Maple/Port Orford guitar and I knew that the time had
finally come to make this dream into a reality.
Boy am I happy I did!? The guitar could not have been a more
spectacular one. The beauty and the creative possibilities that she
inspired from the very first moment we envisioned her have transformed
in a resonant beauty, one with character distinguished by a deep bass
accompanied by he most perfect trebles. She’s responsive and amazingly
easy to play. Naturally, the extra value she has to offer is the
miraculous perfume that comes out of the sound hole. She speaks to all
my senses and she will be the dream come true of one blessed guiar
player.
I want to congratulate my young daughter Chiara for making the demo
video which is a tremendously challenging feat to pull off. Bravo
Chiara! S.D.G.
