In which country was it made? Spain, handcrafted in Valencia

What kind of stick? fine enough for a classic

table solid cedar and rosewood back

UTILIZATION

<ul class="ul">

The handle is it nice? very

Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)? it's very light, and shape is perfect, apart from perhaps the heel is pointed, it can hurt ...

Access to acute (last string) Is it easy? not really but it's pretty normal on a guitar of this type ...

Do you get a good sound easy? yes. Finally, we must know when the master, change the strings often and have good polish. but the bass is easily removed without force, the sound is never scrap without fail for as low mids, and harmonics in the treble and shrill sound "easy"

</ul>

SOUNDS

<ul class="ul">

Are they suitable for your style of music? yeah, it's a classic to play classical and flamenco is perfect. That said, played with a pick (a large plectrum) it sounds very good to play Manouche, the sound may be slammed or round, you can even play the old blues of Blind Lemon Jefferson or even later in the john lee it goes really well.

What are the sounds you prefer, you hate? I like everything, apart strings with very large drawing, the G string has become hard to sound clean and powerful at once.

</ul>

OVERALL OPINION

<ul class="ul">

For how long have you been using it? Approximately 3 years



Did you try many other models before getting this one? yes a lot. Yamaha of Alhambra and especially (yuck the Alhambra)
I played on my old classic for 10 years before. I even tried some guitars together very, very expensive store, and a few originals as models (eg with a ramp between the splint and the table to the right wrist is placed alone) no don ' much more than the "model 7", while "Model 6" takes the comparison too. The Yamaha also hold dear the comparison, but they have less character / features



What thing do you like most/least about it? In fact it is the guitar chose me and I joined was the view above. I have tried many, but this one as soon as I got it in his hands, before even leaving a note, I liked him already. After I played, and I'm married. It's a bit hard to explain but for example the Alhambra was exactly the opposite, as soon as I took one in my hands I had not even want to play, just throw it far away.



What is your opinion about the value for the price? very good, the finish is almost perfect, the wood is well chosen, although clean, it's a good job. In addition she is beautiful! back rosewood is beautiful ... The only downside is the golden Clées that are really kitsch, but it seems that people like this is like the buttons of Marshall amps, I think I'm the only one to find it disgusting ... The sound is great, it really gives something more compared to everything I tried, I like to play as well as for the technical work (it's not why it is easy eh after one hour of range, it hurts when .. mm)



Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? yes, even 10 times
