Personal Details:
This guitar I have is a hand made one from Peru that I purchased during
Christmas year 2004 of my music teacher who I am currently studying
with. This guitar is particularly high quality and all the way through
hand made. The name Falcon is a well established brand name based in
Lima Peru, I'm told by my music teacher Rene this guitar maker is
renowned for their excellent craftsmanship.
Construction:
The body is made in a traditional accoustic classical guitar profile
and uses nylon strings. The bridge-saddle and the nut are hand-carved
of bonet; the fingerboard is ebony or something similar, the tuners are
of machine-gear type.
Footnotes: I usually keep this guitar in standard "E-A-D-G-B-E" tuning although I regularly experiment with alternate tunings there is no truss rod so I don't tune upwards often mostly downwards.
