This is my first encounter with Palo Escrito, and I have to say I am impressed. This is a true rosewood and it has a very resonant tap tone, and is quite economical. In color it reminds me of Honduran Rosewood. This set is well aged and large enough for a dreadnaught.

Retail value is $100. But we will end the auction early and throw in free shipping for a bid of $85.

The auction ends tomorrow at 3PM EST.

I changed the warm bulbs to cool ones, played with getting the flash to work, and monkeyed with the settings. I still don't know what I am doing, but they seem a little better.

Better than what I do, I drop it and hope the buttons randomly get changed for the better!
