This guitar is incredible. Absolutely in love with it. Built with a very rare and beautiful back and side tone wood set of Snakewood. Built for finger style playing, but can handle anything. Dake is a master builder of classical and steel string guitars. He's been building for over 50 years. I had a great experience working with Dake to spec out this masterpiece. This instrument was just a stack of raw wood less than six weeks ago--Dake built it in about 5 weeks.
Too bad my wife interrupted the moment around the 4 minute mark and I had to cut the video a bit short!
