I have a Green Blanca due in several months. The 2 guitars i played of his were outstanding. They have a very traditional sound, and were very loud, which for some reason(I would guess due to the body size compared to a classical guitar) are not so easy to find in flamenco guitars. I love the sound of his guitars, but sound is subjective as we all know. I never played a Devoe that I liked, I dont find his guitars to project well at all(In volume no comparison to a Green). The Devoe statement is going to make alot of people on this forum angry. But I played his guitars, and in my SUBJECTIVE opinion, well I just dont get the fascination people have with his guitars. And I ask those who reply to my negative comments on Devoe, to please not use the fact that Vicente Amigo, Paco de Lucia have played Devoes. Be more creative. Hey lets name all the greats who dont play his guitars. itoprover, audition as many makers as you can. That traditional blanca sound with powerful clear and rich trebles, well thats a Green, but I'm sorry the part about the Reyes sound that you said your looking for, and I know that sound very well in my head, that Vicente Amigo sound from his first album. I'm not sure thats a Green and its definately not a DEvoe. Man, did i run on. Good luck
