Error in the Youtube... reuploaded

Thank you for all the kind comments.

As a token of my gratitude, here is a video sampel for Leo.
The player, Eunsung Kim - not me by the way, is professional fingerstyle guitarist in South Korea.

I think you meant "guitarist" right Eric?

That must be one heck of a music store, I see an Olson hanging right behind!

Congrats Justin, it sounds wonderful. Eunsung is also an absolute beast on the guitar. Would love to be able to play that well one day

Just wow! I have no words to say how beautiful that is!
May I ask how Leonardo finished the rosette? Is it bare wood or did he shellac each facet in the carving? (I'm guessing it's a french polished top?)

Thank you for all the compliments.... it surely sounds awesome..

For the rosette, Leo carved bare wood with a wrinkled red-colored paper made from mulberry trees inside and did the french polish - A.K.A shellac, Yes! - upon the carved top

That's a gorgeous looking and great sounding guitar! It reminds me a lot of the Somogyi 12-fret fanned fret guitar that is up at Dream Guitars (owner's guitar?), for some obvious reasons.

Thanks!

Yes, I am actually so impressed to the Somogyi 12 fanned fret guitar given to Paul at Dream Guitars. So I specifically wanted to adopt head-style of that guitar. Other than that, all of the works are re-interpreted and fashioned by Leo himself based on his aesthetic sense

Default Wow!

That is a masterpiece, Justin! I have been thinking about having a Buendia for some time, this seals it for me.
