Hi Tom Well thanks for the offer. Well price and Quality is always interesting to know. I bought a set from LMI 3 years ago and I wasn´t to fond of it. Poor maching of sides and back and a BIG (1cm) knot in the sides. I´ve ordered 2 sets from them and they have promissed to send me something decent, so I´m not into buying a lot. I was more interested, because I would like to go myself. I like Mexico. Fantastic country. Landscape, people, colours, smells. Everything.[:)] I think that if you go further down south, to Paracho or maybe to where they harvest (Queretaro amongst other provinces) You can get better quality for less money... I repeat, in my opinion, quality is very important talking about Palo Escrito. Not because of sound and stability. I regard it as very high in both aspects, butbecause modern 1st world guitarbuyers are not used to knots etc, so they wont pay. And when you build for a living, thats an important part of the game....[;)] BTW... I have a feeling that you are building a lot more now than a year ago. Is that true.
