I know YouTube is deceptive etc. but if it's anything as good in "real life" then it's one of the very best I've heard from Ralph.

I know Ralph shies away from advertising his guitars: He'll want you to take that video down immediately, 'cos it's one of the best adverts for his craft that I've heard!

Will you sell it to me (and give me lessons)?!

Cheers,

Thanks Steve - of course it's better in real life! Incredibly responsive, which, as with any high-end guitar, means lots of note dampening for certain pieces, especially Bach. It is very similar to Clive Carroll's new guitar in that respect.

Thanks, I thought a guitar of this calibre deserves it and it will also be useful for Ralph and his online presence.
