Best value: Correct
Made in Spain by Mateo Geronimo.
Two microphones system fishman IV: a pickup and a piezo.
Equalizer, Feedback Detection.

Class A Spruce
Sides Rosewood, like the back. The handle is made of cedar
The cut allows good access to treble for solos in jazz bossa example.

UTILIZATION

The neck is wide, but I have a very small hand, it must be normal for others. Access to acute is surprising for a nylon string guitar, it's very nice. The guitar is very balanced, very pleasant to play, but not easy either.
This is a guitar demanding. When I tried to buy it, I returned for a week because she had the perfect sound, but I found it a little curled. In fact, I was just playing ... evil. After one week, the salesman told me: "play with the table vertically," and miraculously. Never had any problems. Very very nice for solo jazz or bossa, and some classical. The guitar is lightweight, it is also surprising for a guitar sound.

The pickups are Fishman IV. The piezo avoid returns live, the other micro brings roundness. By measuring the two, we get to beautiful sounds. Taking jack seems however insufficiently upscale for a guitar of this price.

In short, apart from a run a little wide for my hands girls, perfect.

SOUNDS

Sound. Well, I put 1500 euros to buy this guitar. It saved me I was going to stop the guitar. I did not take more fun to play, I thought it was because of my low level. When I bought this guitar, the fun is back.
First surprise: the length. She held a note incredible.
Second surprise: power. For a cutaway guitar sound is pleasant.

It is a very balanced guitar. The bass is audible without being crystal clear treble retent round (ie nylon, eh).

Guitars in general annoy me at the G string, or there is a small hollow in the sound. This is not the case.

At her, the best nylon cutaway guitar on which I played.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a dozen years.
I love the sound, really nice. This guitar is a straightforward, not tricky. And most importantly, nylon rope, she has some nervousness. I play stuff pop or rock, and it is not ridiculous.
So the sound, versatility, for a nylon rope, are major assets.

What I like least: the snobbery of classiqueux: no "points" to identify cases 5, 7, 12. I put dots of varnish on the edge of the button, and it will.

J4avais tried all electro acoustic guitars for all stores london, nylon and steel, and I always came back to it.

I had paid 1600 euros. A value price.
