#1 and #2 both sold to Burke Williams, a guitarist in LA, Facebook, etc. He came down and bought #1, loved #2, so drove back and bought the second one. A nice compliment. He said that during some hard times in the 80's, he'd sold a '62 Conde Hermanos, and my #2 reminded him "soooo much of that guitar" that he had to have mine. So...he did... He's also supposed to be doing an online review, too. #3 Spanish cypress Englemann spruce top Spanish cedar neck German spruce bracing 655mm 54mm at nut Santos Hernandez pattern Ebony fretboard Cocobola headstock and bridge Traditional ebony pegs, built with my secret technique so they tune rather easily VERY percussive and bright, excellent accompaniment instrument for dancers. Going into the classifieds so I can finish #4 and start #5, a Negra.

Great Job Ramon! It is superb. What kind of finish did you use?

Ramón -> RE: #3...finished awhile back, just never posted (Mar. 19 2011 21:50:25)
As always, French polish. Have thought about a lacquer body with an FP top....maybe. I have playing equipment, but no good recording equip', so no sound file right now. Sadly, when Spain's Antonio Moya jammed on my No. 1, right before a concert, I only had a cell phone...Junk stuff, but cool, nonetheless... http://s643.photobucket.com/albums/uu156/surf69er/?action=view¤t=Antonio_on_No1.mp4
