Comments:
Just Arrived. I will write more when I record with the guitar. Her condition is excellent, nothing of note to mention except for some small isolated nail ticks on the board. The back and sides are excellent with a touch of play wear rubbing, which I’ve buffed out for the most part. Strings changed with Savarez Carbons, she’s doing a bit of singing all of a sudden! Nice.

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 – 180519-barthell-155-cedar-eirw – a superb guitar with guttiness even with the trebles? Wow, very impressed. I set her up, cleaned and restrung, and she came alive in a hurry.
My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested.
