Sounds like it can go in lots of directions. I like the rosette, it's got variety but also hierarchy. Thanks! I was referring to it as my "ugly" rosette but it seems like a lot of folks like it. I actually put it together when severely sleep-deprived [:D] quote:
Sounds really nice! I would really like a guitar from you Andy but unfortunately the customs to buy a guitar from USA costs about 1200 euros. I'm currently looking for a new guitar. I see that Spain is my only option. Thank you! I sent you an email, maybe we can work something out. quote:
Hi Andy, the Blanca looks fantastic! The rosette is really unique and adds a lot of character. I’ve always loved how cedar blancas breathe and move air when they’re new-the vibe is right from the start. I’ve experienced it with spruce too, but not as much with cedar. It’s great to see this design coming together so well for you. The sound will likely open up and mature beautifully over time. Personally, I’m a fan of a clean, clear sound with no chasqueo (string buzz), but that’s just my preference. Looking forward to seeing more of your work! Thanks! Totally agree that Cedar often sounds great right away and Spruce takes more time to open up. I set the action a little lower on this one than I normally do because it felt like it could handle it, but there is a little bit of buzz yes. Appreciate the feedback.
