What a nice and very informative video, I know people do build with flamed and quilted woods , and many times they are sought after for the effect , I have a guitar with a Curly maple top ( although this is not the same as it is an electric ) but still the effect is almost 3D. It looks great , I have never heard that it would change the sound of an acoustic ( better or worse) and I would think it doesn't , quote:
EDIT: one thing i find hard to imagine is that the builder didnt notice before the french polish stage, when figured wood is being planed it often shows that there is some figure present. yeah I thought as well, how come . and in your first post you said quote:
,but something suddenly happened specially in the back that the wood got flamed I dont think the wood suddenly got flamed ! it was there all the time by growth , I can only think that perhaps somehow the polishing process brought it out to be more noticable , I would go with the guitar you may have something more unique, as for price make sure you dont get charged MOre for it .... the guitar has to be played really to see if its what you want or not .
