Hi all
I have 3 single builder handbuilt guitars each of which have some parts done with hide glue and other parts with different adhesives.
I don't even know all the parts are or are not hide glued.
I love all three of these guitars, and they are all life long instruments. The adhesives the builders used are not important to me. I bought each without regard for the builder's preferences in finish, or adhesives. I bought them for the resonance, responsiveness, projection, sustain, and tone. They all have these in abundance.
I assumed because their other guitar builds met my criteria, the new one for me would too. And they did.
And all have been in my herd for 10 to 25 yrs and aren't going anywhere.
All three have so much of the qualities I need in abundance, it's a little like driving a car with 800 horsepower on downtown streets. They nailed every aspect of what I was looking for with qualities yet undiscovered after years of playing them.
