@ jeff, and keith, Yeah i've looked at many forum about bellucci, and it doesn't look good, there have been many cases where the guitar requested has some missing bits or...they order a cut-away and get one without things like that...they also say the quality is maybe of a student guitar or less but the price is still steep. So now i guess the same old question comes up, how to obtain a left handed one haha...i might have to get that ramirez....it's not exactly what i want though, i wish it had geared pegs, and not machine-heads...especially hate the white tuning buttons. But at least i already know i like the sound of it...There is a video of Grisha playing an FL2...sounds really bright...maybe almost to aggressive of a sound haha but still nice I also have really considered making it myself, although i have no experience in making guitars...but eventually i do want to make it a hobby, as for tools and resources, i just have "classical guitar making-a modern approach to traditional design" by John S. Bogdanovich...which seems to be really great, except i want a flamenco not classical haha.... so might need a little....(lot) of practice and some flamenco guitar plans....some wood obviously and a lot more tools...might end up being a lot more expensive but i'd have tools left over. Also my brother has a Large Mill and lathe.....don't think the lathe would be useful but might be able to use the mill sort-of like a drill press? idk(i don't know). also have a tiny router table and hand router. so i'd have to look into this option more to get a better idea, think i'd need a side bending deal and "go-bar deck" i think it's called...,for the side bending i think the traditional heated iron/shoe thing would take a load more skill to use...so i'd take the easy way out and use the bending machine deal...or make my own. I'd need all the hand tools(scraper, gouges, ect.) , sand paper, those big sanding disks. haha sorry i'm going a bit off topic, but at least i know you guys will tell me if that is an even worse idea hahah
