Ollie -> RE: Kremona rosa morena vs Manuel Rodriguez ff (Mar. 16 2015 0:27:48)

Bit late to the thread (just joined the forum) but I purchased a Rosa Bella about 2 months ago. I played a lot of guitars and this one stuck out. Actually I liked the Rosa Blanca more, but not really $700 more. Main things I like about the Bella -- the neck feels glorious in my hand, the projection and brightness, the deep bass, the stunning blond woods, the relatively shallow body, the light weight and crisp handling. Things I don't like -- it can sound harsh and brittle at times, it is unforgiving, there are some tones that are missing perhaps midrange not sure, it lacks the sweetness that my old Takamine G126 classical has (but the Takamine sounds dead compared to the Bella). I am using Savarez high tension strings on the Bella. Want to maybe find something softer and warmer. Like I said the Bella sometimes sounds harsh. One more thing -- I feel like a better player on the Bella.
