But somehow this guitar that i have the 1f extra, does not seem to be a factory model. I can say it is obviously handmade from many factors.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah I knew it was mass produced, and by people saying “factory made” is really about how much the machine work was involved I suppose. How much of human touch has to be involved to be considered as “hand-made” it is hard to say. However, the common sense that I have from bigger major companies such Cordoba. I can definitely say it is hand made. I am quite curious what the qualities of other models from HSL are, specifically the Solea and 2f models compare to 1f extra. Do you have any ideas of those lower end models? The one I have now is the 2022 1f pau ferro btw and it is definitely comparable to some of well known artistry luthiers. Very satisfied.
