Thank you Evan for the very kind words. And not to hijack the thread, but you prompted a point that might be worthwhile to the OP.
As mentioned earlier, that guitar is a challenge for me with first position chords at the nut. As soon as I got it (2nd hand), I replaced the old strings with standard tension nylons. That just didn’t work for me because the strings just moved too much under my fingers. As a last resort before selling it, I took a suggestion from the forum here and put on a set of high-tensions.
That made all the difference in the world, and the guitar is a permanent member of the fleet now.
Hope that is useful information,
Gary
