Comments
Just arrived, this guitar is another superb example of the beauty and warmth of Master Grade Western Red Cedar used as a top soundboard! Pretty, full bodied voice, very powerful as well, and easy to play. Excellent work by the master luthier from New Mexico. The range of the guitar is impressive as is her volume. I have rarely heard a full and powerful nylon G string in a guitar and this has it. Simply beautiful woods overall and a wondrous sound.
Further clarification from Wilson on this guitar: ”
He’s a character too. Look at his photo, you can see it in his eyes! LOL Good guy.

About Wilson Burnham – “I hand craft classical guitars in a small studio outside of Taos, New Mexico.
I use only hand tools and high quality woods to make my guitars. This allows me to make a guitar that has a true singing voice, one that is loud and has a large range of tonal colors and nuances.
As a classical guitar player myself, I know the joy of playing a truly wonderful guitar – one that sings, is responsive to your playing style, is easy to play with a voice that reaches the last row of seats in a recital or concert hall, and most of all, a guitar that you fall in love with so much you never want to stop playing it.
That is the kind of guitar that I make.” – Wilson Burnham

Media
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 is 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
MP3 Audio – 240810-2023 Wilson Burnham Sancha Cedar EIRW – the 1st thing that occurred to me is the power and projection of this guitar! Bellowing almost. Sweet voiced, clear in all registers, blooming in the basses and singing in the trebles. Growl in the mids is another quality I look for and this guitar has that easily. Wilson continues to impress.
My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested.
