ORIGINAL: TANúñez erog, The videos are really more on promoting Andalucian guitars and not so much on how to choose a good guitar. exactly tom, let me be more precise, because you were TOO NICE i watched these vids from "Prof." diaz few days ago. ridiculous !! besides few general info, the rest is more or less bullcrap and more or less hidden advertising of andalusian guitars but not only that. what really annoyed me, was his ridiculous tactic of indirect badmouthing everything else except andalusian guitars ! he should call his videos: "how to promote andalusian guitars, by indirectly badmouthing all other guitars out there - from $100 to $2000 to $10000 guitars, but of course don't mention it always directly, and think that everyone out there watching my videos is stupid" he picked 3 alleged not so good guitars ($100 - $2000 - $10000) as representatives of all 100 - 2000 - 10000 guitars available in the market, and he is basically saying all of them are junk, because of difference of distance of the strings (come on Prof. diaz !!they are even $100 chinese guitars out there, with perfect and exact distance between strings, etc.) and because of not passing his "quarter coin test" (come on Prof. diaz !! they are even 100 guitars passing this test with good setup), and because of his sound test ! (as if one could judge about that in such a video!) he is even zooming in the lable of one of the "junk guitars" (the alleged 10.000 one) --- why on hell not just make a video and tell everyone that andalusian guitars are good guitars and that he can recommand them? but after these videos, i would not even buy one for 1000. i hate these subtle unfair tactics!! funny is: at the beginning of the videos (part 1), he says: "we are not talk about brands or anything, it is not our purpose of this lesson!!!" "it is not about selling anything" amateurish guerilla marketing at its best ! --- bottom line: his behaviour and respect towards other guitar builders, is as the same level of his respect towards other good guitarists here in the foro, which we were witness of in the past. i recommand everyone to NOT watch the videos.
