RE: Zircote Classical Guitar (in reply to Andy Culpepper)
Thanks, Andy. I've had some boards that I was saving because they are mostly spalted but when I decided that I wanted flamed maple for the bindings I realized that there was enough on one of them that was not spalted and was nicely flamed.
I've been meaning to tell you that I like the various ways you've done cutaways.
I find it difficult to pick a thing to play to show a 'classical' guitar to classical players. So I play solea falsetas but in a very square way and make them ring. Or I play Guardame las vacas, but like its flamenco.
I used to worry about it, but I heard a Pepe Romero interview ( and i already knew this) but said good guitars play both. So now I don't worry about it. Next time just play without telling them, guitars are guitars.
