I'm interested in your description of tonal qualities and your use of the term "spit". Am I correct in interpreting that as "attack" and/or, perhaps "velocity of sound"?
Anyway, it is delightful to read of a luthier and his passion. Keep up the story.

Hi,
Thank you. In terms of 'spit', Martin and I considered this to be about the power at the start of the note. We were looking for a powerful but controllable punch which we called 'spit'.
Next chapter coming today, hope you enjoy!
All the very best,
Rory
