Is there anyone interested in guitar building?

Jiaohp, I know who teaches you build the guitar... Fang Ren Jun. I have been to his workshop and know him very well and own one of his guitar.

What do you think about his guitar?

Jiaohp,
i think there are not many luthier likes Fang, who is also a concert/recording guitarist. As a professional guitarist, he sets very high expectation on every guitar coming out from his workshop. I respect his professionalism.
the one i bought from him is a spruce top. The sound is starting to open up. On the price side, his guitar is more reasonable than many european makers who overpriced themselves with the high standard of living in europe.
I believe Fang's guitar has good potential, except he lacks of the ambitious to open the overseas market.
But let's be honest, with billions of population in China and only one living luthier likes him, he probably can have his order book fill-up until the day he can no longer be able to build any guitar.
I guess his waiting time now is 6-9 months.

Is Fang has a web site? What is the price range from his guitar?
Thanks,

Fang does have a web site...
www.rjfang.com
... only if you can read Chinese. His guitar starts from the price of US$ 600 up to the range of US$ 4K (special double back model).
There is also a forum on the site and I'm one of the active contributor to the forum (in Chinese).
