Details
Maybe it's the delicate lattice-braced soundboard, perhaps aided by the twin sound ports on either side of the neck heel, but whatever it is sure works as this is one of the most responsive classical guitars we've had in a long while. The label is signed by Kenny Hill, with the word "prototype" added but we're not sure how many lattice-braced models like this were made. It has been played, and since the finish is thin French polish there are quite a few little dings and light scratches to the surface, mostly behind the bridge from string changes. But there are no cracks anywhere and no significant dents or crunches.
