The Rider nylon string comes the closest to sounding like a traditional classical guitar; but it was just not comfortable for me. The Emerald X20-OSN is yet another incredible guitar; but a bit too large for my taste.

To cut to the chase, I've ended up hanging on to two CF nylon strung guitars, one being the instrument you have in your sights. The Rainsong Parlor was brought to my attention by Mr. Rogers of this forum and made available to me by Michael of MacNichol guitars. I owe them both as the RS is a remarkable instrument--the sound is warm and lush without a loss of clarity. Even though the RS is a 12 fret, it allows fairly high reach. I have a K&K in mine and it is electrifying. I don't think you can go wrong with the Rainsong.

thanks Evan
