They look BEAUTIFUL! Regrettably I can’t play the guitar (or anything else, for that matter) but I can appreciate the beauty of the instrument.
Hi Nick,
They do look fantastic. I took up learning the guitar three years ago at the age of 52, and been enjoying it very much. It’s never too late to learn. Regrettably I can’t afford a quality blackwood guitar. Pity! Cheers!
