MGR/Adam Spencer « Almansa 457 »
Published on 11/01/02 at 15:00I aquired this unit online from Classical Guitar Shop.com. It was accompanied by a TKL case at a cost of, get this, $1,025.00.
Everything. The sides and back are an excellent grade of solid Indian Rosewood, grainy and very aesthetically pleasing. The top is top-notch solid cedar. The neck is perfect for my size hand and the headstock and tuning pegs are great. The tone quality is deep and softly rich. Every time I open the case, I have to give it a twang and a hug. It has already become "the other woman".
I wish that I had purchase one a long time ago. I have cycled through quite a few other guitars to get to this one. It should have know where I was. Therapy will follow. Playing this guitar is therapy.
I have looked and fondled this guitar over and over, and then once more. I cannot find any negative comments for the construction and quality of this instrument.
This is top quality stuff.
This guitar is an outstanding purchase for both quality and sound. I have underestimated Almansa. They really are producing a high quality product. The price is conservative for the quality of this instrument and I hope that it stays that way so others may enjoy playing something that makes you feel wealthy. If you don't own one, get one. It could be the last classical guitar that you purchase. Wait, what did I just say? Never mind. Believe me, get one.
