<p>[QUOTE="Chinoiserie, post: 13111227, member: 79460"]I found this on my travels today. The label inside says Ricardo Sanchis and it has a beautiful tone. Nice and mellow but with some bite when plucked for good expression. The neck seems true although action is slightly high further up the neck. Not sure if classical guitars have or need truss rods to correct this. The down side is the finish. It looks as if someone has sploshed it with varnish with gay abandon. It's even on the fret board which us breaking up from abrasion from the strings. I was tempted to try and clean it from the fret board as this is where it looks the worse. I've attempted to respray guitars myself historically and know that it's something best left to experts with the correct equipment. I've researched if nitromors is safe and it seems so. Still I'd like to try something less aggressive if possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]558990[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558983[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558984[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558985[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558986[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558987[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558989[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
