ORIGINAL: Ruphus No realtime experience here; but since I saw a video with Grisha trying out a T. Perez ( among several brands ) at GSI I noted down these builders´name for to not miss out on future opportunities for trying out. I was very impressed by the crisp, metallic, perfectly rasping sound, and by what ought to have been great pulsation ( which for me means soft, still fast ). That moment I thought if I was Grisha I would had not left without taking that one with me. However, Perez´ pricing parallels Conde primeras for one, and secondly some players like Grisha and PdL appear to prefer rather stiff pulsation.

ORIGINAL: Erik van Goch One thing that leaves to be investigated is its scale.... 64 cm seems to fit my hands very well. Even though without practical experience, yet convinced that standard measures are not too ergonomical for average size folks, I asked for 64 cm scale length. Because of difficulties regarding transport the guitar is still not in my hands, but the flamenco playing builder discovered with pleasure that this scale fits himself like a glove. I could think of scales shorter than 65 cm to be increasing their part in the range of guitars. With the community´s very limited experience outside of standard measures, shorter scales are being said to be a disadvantage in terms of reselling ( through advertisings at least), but I guess that might be changing. Moreover, I suppose there will be a time when folks will learn which proportions, including spacings, suit them individually best. Like with other disciplines tools, like skiing, running, etc. ... And factories could develop sizes with individual scales length and spacings for at least S, M, and L, from maybe 165 cm to 190 tall or so.
