tres cool, thanks for sharing that. as I have mentioned many times on this forum, i am a big admirer of Torres, the greatest guitar builder ever (imo). my fantasy would be to play any one of his builds even for a couple minutes.

You betcha! Torres is a big inspiration for sure, and I love his smaller guitars
especially.
