ORIGINAL: Chanpanpap Well I feel a bit disappointed, has been refinished so not sure about how to feel about it, sound is ok, I was hoping something very loud... its a proud house right? well again not 100% sure about it Well, you wanted Cedar…and to boot it was a refinish. My understanding is Cedar is thinner with heavier bracing…so a refinish means any stripping would have thinned it further. Golpes on Cedar tops have always been non-exciting to me (you don’t feel that springy punch as with a good pine top). Loudness is often a result of miss balance ie, too much bass. All that gets rolled off in live mic situations, hence the quiet, but focused and balanced mid range of Condes (in general, the Blanca’s more so) have been ideal for close mic live shows.
