The guitar is in superb condition, after a full refreshing of the top and back/sides. She plays beautifully as well, after a personal setup. The light French Polish finish allows this seemingly thin beauty to resonate and sing. Blooming basses, along with piercing trebles and a ringing sing to her overall voice allow for a musical experience that is difficult to achieve. She plays beautifully, setup to perfection, allowing the ability to drive her, yet you are able to evince a soft evocative voice from her as well. She has musicality and projection. Another exemplary guitar from the English master. I sold the guitar before I could photograph her. The best I could do was 2 shots with my phone. She really was special. __________ Media 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. Rich MP3 Audio –190904-2000 Kevin Aram Ophelia Spruce EIRW – an excellent guitar on every level. The recording speaks much louder than I ever could. I perform “The Mist Covered Mountains of Home” a favorite Celtic piece given to me by my good friend, El McMeen and rearranged by me slightly. I then just tool around a bit, ending with my own composition, as yet untitled. Enjoy, she’s lovely. https://www.savageclassical.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/190904-2000-Kevin-Aram-Ophelia-Spruce-EIRW.mp3 My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested. ——- Video _______ Shipping Premium Hiscox LiteFlite HSC is included in your purchase price.
