This is an excellent and very impressive guitar all around - our first from this very fine maker. Workmanship and materials are top-notch - the soundboard itself being quite old - it is the last from a set that Jake purchased 15 years ago. The sound itself is textured, with ample overtones yet excellent clarity and balance - a wonderful synthesis of the Spanish and Northern European styles. The body of the guitar is very light in weight making it respond like an early 20th century Spanish guitar, but it has a slightly "weightier" neck and stiff neck joint which gives it noticeably increased sustain, balanced across all registers. Playability is a breeze with a very easy and comfortably shaped neck profile. Suitable for any size auditorium - also a wonderful recording instrument. GSI is proud to be the exclusive dealer for this maker and we look forward to seeing many more of his guitars in the future.
