I was not disappointed. The guitar is superb with excellent voice, power and sustain. I will write more when I record with the guitar. Samo is a Doctor of Mechanical Engineering and is a Member of the Advisory Board of Savart Journal regarding the Science and Technology of Stringed Musical Instruments. _____ 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 – 180623-2018 Samo Sali Cedar EIRW DT #172 – super powerful, cello like in its bloom, growl and voice in the mids and the lows. The highs are crystal, capable of a light touch to a piercing tone. Very nice.
