ORIGINAL: Ricardo quote:
ORIGINAL: sartorius Seems to be a Francisco Navarro García with Antonio Rey's initials on the head... Dang, Navarro is copying Manuel Reyes even better than Blackshear if this is true...I thought for sure that was just a Reyes as he has used in the past. At a concert here in Austin a few weeks ago there was a display of guitars by a fairly well known dealer here in Texas. I talked to him for a little while. He didn't have a Navarro on the display in the lobby, but said he had one in the van and offered to get it so I could try it out. I didn't think I would learn much playing in a noisy lobby at a concert intermission, so I didn't go for it. The dealer talked enthusiastically about the Navarro, but when I told him I had a Blackshear Rodriguez model classical, but said nothing more about it, the dealer toned down the Navarro talk a good bit. Still, I hear enough good things about the Navarros that I am seriously considering driving down to Houston to try some out. Driving, because I would take another guitar or two to compare, which to me is the only way to make a valid comparison in an unfamiliar room. RNJ
