| Sound |
Clean separation with astounding
clarity. She evidences bold, round and wet trebles. Very
loud with basses that bounce off of your mid-section and exquisite
trebles that sing. The clarity and separation of voice is
exemplary throughout her entire spectrum. Color and tonal
palette are at your full disposal. |
| Projection |
Extremely powerful with high, lilting
and piercing trebles and basses that leave pretty much nothing to be
desired. The innovative radial bracing coupled with the
exquisitely selected Cocobolo, allows this guitar to explode with
volume, resonance and superior sustain. His instruments simply boom away
from the guitar. |

| Comments |
Lubos is, simply put, a
fantastic builder of guitars. The guitar is much like the other I
have listed, where it is fast, responsive, loud
and projects like a monster. His workmanship is always meticulous,
showing the time and the pride that he puts into his guitars.
A gorgeous sounding, deeply resonant guitar with the booming bass and
singing trebles of a World Class Classical Guitar. Playing her, the guitar just opened up more
and more, giving me the wood flavor of an old barrel used to age wine,
earthen tones that vibrated throughout the room as I played the 6
Preludes from Bach's Cello Suites. With an intent to record her
this evening, I forgot everything and played my guts out, being wholly
inspired by this incredible guitar. By the time I was done, I was
exhausted, exhilarated and smiling. I might record when rested,
but for now, I am taken over by the cutting mid-range of the instrument,
playing the 3rd and 4th strings in higher position, while the trebles
sang over the lines and the basses punched thru the air and my body.
An incredibly inspiring instrument.

Prelude #13 - written by me on November 24, 2009. Engraved
and fully marked. I'm not thrilled with this recording, as I know
it can be played better, but hey...it is what it is for the time being. |
