CITES Not Required – woods used are not regulated 2019 Kim Lissarrague #327 Cedar Ziricote Lattice Comments The guitar is another in an apparent line of absolutely gorgeous instruments by Kim. Her voice is a match. She is big sounding, very gutty, the woodiness of the guitar is very apparent. Play is easily accessible, action and angles excellent. She also has a truss rod for resetting and or minor setup on the fly. The armrest is also a welcome bonus, as she is very comfortable. The guitar is drop dead gorgeous, btw. I like the punch and power from this guitar. She is very bright with the ability to warm things up with RH positioning. Clearly voiced, I was enjoying this guitar a lot, didn’t want to put it down. Nice. She is dated 2019, has no Rosewood whatsoever, so CITES is not an issue. Smart man who builds a superior guitar. Very sharp all around. Kim says, “I have developed my own designs based on the ‘Australian School’ of guitar making. The guitar I have to offer you is a lattice-braced, arched back classical guitar, which has superb projection, clarity and sustain. Combining a full and rich tone, with bright trebles and warm basses.” Wholeheartedly agree, Kim’s guitar is very warm and lyrical, but separation of voice is readily apparent. Kim builds in a small workshop in Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, Australia, creating a limited number of high quality guitars per year. _____________ Media Please note that photos can be enlarged. Right click any photo in the larger window, select “Open Image in New TAB” (if you’re using Chrome. Any other browser has similar options). Look at the other TAB and you will be able to enlarge via the magnifying glass. Simply click the image and she will double in size for your convenience. Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended including EQ manipulation, if possible. We record everything flat with just a touch of Reverb to relieve dryness. My goal is to record the guitar as realistically as is possible. I speak in the recordings, my thoughts about the guitar (and possibly other things?). My speaking also serves to give you my first impressions and to also give you a balance of the engineering (or lack thereof) versus the sound of the guitar. I simply do not have time to engineer much of anything. Thanks.
