Default Hsienmo

Just to support a fellow AGF'er in his sale.

These guitars are amazing: I purchased Mark's sinker redwood/African Blackwood and it is spectacular. Sounds great: loud, resonant and articulate. Incredibly well built, far exceeding many boutique builders' efforts I have owned. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another.

You can't go wrong with this guitar at a great price for Adirondack/madagascar rosewood.

I came darn close to buying this one even though I don't need it. In a couple weeks, I'm headed for a mild surgery and won't be working or drawing income for maybe 4 to 6 weeks. Otherwise, this guitar has two woods different from the 2 Hsienmo guitars I bought last year.

Default New cost

Out of curiosity I priced this guitar on the Hsienmo site. It comes to $2950 ! Is being offered at 50 cents on the dollar.

Smile Yow!

I played this today! It is a lovely axe and looks MINT to me. Plays and sounds fantastic. And the workmanship is TOP SHELF, too.

If this had short scale, and my other preferred specs I would have been unable to resist!!!

Quite the bargain if you are looking for something similar!

Sorry I couldn’t meet Mark as he was working with a client, but his wife was kind enough to give me time to play it!

Sounds great in E, D concert, and open D with slide.

I expect it will move soon, and I hope this review helps…

Cheers

Paul

How would you compare it to your other guitars? Would you rank it equally or above/below the other brands in your stable?
