Thank you sir!. This is my first guitar with D.Tuc and I'm not sure why I waited so long, I have good supplies of the rosewoods, and yet it took me 20 years to get to the Tuc., most of this wood that I have is still in lumber form, I guess I've been to busy to saw it into sets.

Thanks Mike, I'm very happy with the sound of it, It's got a lot of volume, nice quick response, and a surprising amount of sustain.

"If you are here, check out Bill Kraus's guitars, especially the Guatemalan Rosewood one. It has its own sound, woody, airy, very pleasing, balanced, projects well too, my favorite of those I played today. He's in the corner in the back. Better able to hear there."
Nice comments from forum member The Bard Rocks, who played this guitar at The Artisan Guitar Show, Thanks Bard!
