This is the first guitar we have had from this Mallorcan maker who is an experienced performing guitarist as well as a luthier. Well-made, well set up and with good materials, this guitar is quite loud and even. The body resonance is around G#; not as deep therefore as older-style instruments but very common for many makers. The sound character is quite bright, quick, open and penetrating. Projection appears to be good as is the balance. A very pleasing guitar at modest price.
