rogeliocan -> What does 1A mean? (Oct. 21 2010 17:48:13)
|
The first, and only time I have tried a 1A was with a second hand Ramirez guitar. I thought that 1A was an indication of quality, for a shop like Ramirez, build by their most experienced luthier. But now I have seen single luthiers making 1As so I wonder if my first thought was correct, is it a quality or a model? If it is about quality, does a luthier start off wanting to build a 1A or does he decide after building it and playing and listening to it? And if it's the first case, how does one build a 1A, do you buy 1A wood or do you wait until you come accross wood that fit your quality standard? Does it mean you put more attention in building a 1A than the other guitars? What makes the difference? Thanks in advance.
