Steel Strung Guitar in English Cherry

"Hey Ian,
a few months later...
the guitar is sounding better than ever. I am growing to love its very particular qualities. I can play delicate things, I can play really snappy things. It is so nice and light to hold, its low action is easy on the hands. It is crystal clear... Very, very nice! It seems the tonalities of the cherry are coming out more now, it is so unlike a rosewood or mahogany backed guitar, though I could not define quite why. I am trying Beeswing now and I just feel this guitar, in the final analysis, has something of the British Isles in it, exactly what I wanted."
