I'm in the market for a classical and have been eyeing this one:

The back isn't exactly quartersawn, but would it give you any heartburn for potential issues down the road?

Thanks,
Mark

Interesting choice! It sounds a little like other Humphrey models I have heard. The price would seem to be pretty good, for a "concert quality", I don't know whose definition that is, instrument. I'm not a fan of the Millennium sound, but that's me, not you. It certainly seems to have plenty of dynamic room.
