Congratulations on your new Blanca, Mason. It is a wonderful feeling, isn't it? Pulling the guitar out of the box, the proverbially intoxicating scent of cypress and the hallow sound of strings over the pristine spruce.
I miss that and reading your review is contagious, like a yawn, which I may impulsively need to emulate really soon !!
You certainly picked well. Andy is indeed a fine gentleman; his work reflects his scrupulous work ethics and devout passion to flamenco music and guitars.
His videos showcase the instruments really well. But, now, can we expect you to post something as well to give substance to your review?

I just love the malaprop here, because I think both of the homonyms are appropriate.
Interestingly, if you Google malaprop:
mal·a·prop ˈmaləˌpräp/ noun
The mistaken use of a word in place of a similar-sounding one, often with unintentionally amusing effect, as in, for example, “dance a flamingo ” (instead of flamenco ).
