Comments

This is the latest Torres F5 with a bit larger body than the typical Torres model that everyone is accustomed to, though it should be pointed out that Torres himself built at least 3 standard sizes back in the day.  The F5 is in between his smaller body and the larger bodied Spanish guitar.

Kenny has built a handful of these Torres guitars since 2010.  These are part of his late work in the Master Series.  They are quite rare and exceptional in all regards.

I will spend some time with her to write my gut reactions to the guitar, but I can tell you she is gorgeous in appearance and voice.  Really nice job by Kenny with these guitars, back in late 2000’s or now.  Every one of these guitars that I’ve personally held in my hand are seriously special.  This one is no exception.  The guitar is in superb condition with nothing to report regarding top, back/sides/setup.  She is beautiful.  The guitar is strung with Savage Classical Guitar High Tension 90lb. strings

Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended including EQ manipulation, if possible. We record everything flat with just a touch of Reverb to relieve dryness. My goal is to record the guitar as realistically as possible. I speak in the recordings, my thoughts about the guitar (and possibly other things?).  My speaking also serves to give you my first impressions and to also give you a balance of the engineering (or lack thereof) versus the sound of the guitar.  I simply do not have time to engineer much of anything.  Thanks. Rich
