I went to visit a good friend who builds classical guitars yesturday... we always have great talks about construction, the essence of a MUISICAL instrument and what makes it that way, technical and otherwise.
He filmed me playing a new guitar he just finish, and I though it would be nice to share it with you.

Very nice! I'm sure if it was recorded with better sound, it would have done justice, but even without that, it has nice balanced sound throughout. Beautifully done. That headstock veneer adds wonderful accent! Good playing, too :)

It's so beautiful, I feel like crying. Seriously. What is the name of that piece.

Thanks Guys (-: it really is a nice guitar... the trebles are still stiff, being a new guitar, but I feel like it has great potential. Harlan and everyone, I haven’t been playing really for a long time, but I plan to get back into it, since you seem to enjoy it
maybe I'll post new videos here, unless that might be a problem bieng that it's off topic ..?
