A recording that seems to reveal the sound characteristics of a Lester DeVoe guitar

Managed to acess yesterday and having been switching back and forth between Martins´s playing with the DeVoe, the Barba and the Miguel Rodriguez. Hard to tell. All three marvellous instruments, and one just wished to be checking them out live side by side. So far it seemed as if the DeVoe had the most luster, while the Rodriguez coming along rather dry, but with great separation, a mighty lower register and an inbuilt church hall. While the Barba appears to reside somewhere in between the two other. The Barba and the Rodriguez seem spot on intonation wise, while the DeVoe not exactly. Remarkable to me how the DeVoe and Barba perform despite of having been built just this year. Most inspiring yet remains the player´s adorable performance. He really got me hooked. - Besides, I obtained a M. Rodriguez Estudio blanca last year that had been badly beaten up and split through its sides, with the body almost into halfs. A whole guitar forum was mocking and foaming about how I would be so stupid to have such a piece of junk restored, but it showed to be worth the money. Though short of a brilliance common to concert level instruments, it otherwise bears quite the timbre and properties typically known to M.R. guitars. ( Including great separation and perfect intonation.) And it has most of character among my guitars. Ruphus
