On a recent trip to Brazil I took one of my seven string classical guitars. This is a very popular instrument in Brazil used in the Chorinho genre. Here is a video of Brazilian guitarist and composer, Euclides Marques, playing a Brazilian classic, Lamentos do Morro, on one of my 7 string classical guitars. Check out that right hand technique! Enjoy! |

The guitar sounds great and the player is very talented and I did enjoy it. However, a better demo might be one of a piece where the 7th string is actually used since it is a seven string guitar. Pat |

Robbie, it's a great-sounding guitar. I must say the width of the fingerboard is pretty intimidating to me (I seldom play nylon string guitars). Obviously, this gentleman is totally comfortable with it--BEYOND comfortable. I think your guitar sounds excellent throughout its range. Patrick |

That's great Robbie. I found the first piece technically interesting but the second much more melodic and pleasing to my ear. I think it showed off the guitar better. Sounded nice on all strings. Love the low one. Cheers, Pat |

That really is chaotic beauty isn't it. Such a strange style. Nice looking and sounding guitar too. |
