Is anyone familiar with Riamundo guitars?
Is anyone familiar with Raimundo guitars? Apparently they just recently started selling them in the USA.

A Raimundo was my first classical guitar in 2007. I bought it from Sam Ash, and it was an all-solid cutaway in cedar and rosewood. The good sides, for me, were that it sounded wonderful - deep and rich on the wound strings and sweet on the trebles. It looked great, too, and smelled heavenly - it could perfume a room within minutes of getting out of the case! The downside, again for me, was the playability. The action was high and the neck like a treetrunk. Maybe I'd see it a little differently now, having played more classicals, but at the time, the transition from the sleek necks and baby-actions we find on our Taylors, Gibsons and the rest of 'em was a little too much for me. I sold it because of this, which I now consider to have been a rash move.
