Well the guitar is lovely but the proof is in the playing, non? Oh...my...gosh....! Drew totally nailed the Barrios piece, and it sounded wonderful - great balance, nice growly bass that I expect out of a Ramirez (and my own....) Thanks for sharing! Rob |

I can't think of the right superlative. I'm fairly well astonished by the quality of the guitarist and the sound he pulls out of your instrument. And he makes it looks effortless. What a guitar! What a guitarist! And excellent video production, too. Patrick |

Looks good - Sounds good. What more can you ask? Nice playing too. You are right about the Barrios piece. (see below) |

Bridge material? |

Thanks for all the kind words. Please have a look at some of Drew's other YouTube videos as well, he has some great performances on his eight string. The bridge was a piece of Honduran rosewood. |

That's just your 2nd guitar?!?! C'mon...I'm not buying it. That thing sounds and, from what I can see, looks incredible.
