RE: Peña Vargas Guitars..? (in reply to tijeretamiel)

Richard's guitar is a cannon. as for the aesthetics: it looks great, I especially love the wood selection, the madagascar rosewood looks super cool, altough it's so dark, that's hard to capture trough a camera, and the red lining in the middle... I just like it. Nice clean work. The guitar is LOUD, has projection and punch, I had to step back a 1,5meter to get the full tone-scope. It feels very fresh yet, but already has a very spicy full tone, and it will develop further.... The first guitar I liked the luthier strings on The action at the 12th fret - 3,5 mm seems high, HOWEVER, it does NOT feel uncomfortable, maybe because the action at the bridge is very low. As we agreed maybe a little lowering on the nut is needed, but not on the saddle. there's space for that, so Richard can experiment. The shaping of the heel looks a bit too big, but it didn't mean a problem when playing.
