I like'em!

The last guitar I posted here was my 25th. Today I'm showing off my 50th!

It's a classical. Cedar top, IRW B/S, bubinga bindings and headplate, ebony fretboard, african mahogany neck, honduran rosewood bridge.

Nothing special about it other then the fact that the number '50' is written on the label.

It's going into the hands of a guitar student. Which I'm quite happy about. This guitar should be played well!

[clap] [clap] Congratulations mon ami! That's a lot of guitars and that one looks great. How about a close up of the tie block? Good to hear it's going to be well played.

Cheers,
Danny

Thanks Danny!

I don't have a close-up of the tie block of this specific guitar, but all my classicals and flamencos have a similar tie block, so here is a picture taken from one of my classical demo.
