Such beautiful playing!

Interesting! Going to try these , And well explained! I like your humility in terms of acknowledging great players when you are yourself a extremely good player ! I try to make little exercise s out of my repertoire if I can but I could spend 15 mins a day on these I think

Cedar win

duuuuude😮

Beautiful playing. I am the person that commissioned that guitar from Martin... Always loved the cedar / maple combination and it works well in a double top.

Superbe!,et la guitare à un timbre magnifique, c est tellement beau Scarlatti, trop dur pour moi pour le moment, bien content de déjà jouer le k32 😊

Thankful

Really nice 😊

I will gladly pay you to play something 2:50- 3 min for early Christmas present for me. I really really love your playing. I would like to put it on my spa relaxation video on TH-cam if that’s okay!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I’ll say you played this for me and give you credit! 😃💯✨😊

Thank you for introducing me to the concept of double top.

It's Eliot Fisk transcription?

Needed this one! My friend Carlos Serrano just told me about this exercise he also was a student of Rene

What guitar do you play ?

I expected that I would like the cedar more than the Spruce but it was the other way around. The spruce was markedly more articulate - each note rang out beautifully clear.

Una de las mejores interpretaciones que llevo escuchadas en mis 75 años de vida, sobria, sin efectos superfluos, ajustada, elegante. Y eso que escuché desde Renata Tarragó a los monstruos que tenemos hoy en día. Mis felicitaciones y un saludo desde Madrid.

I listened to this interview with great interest - I certainly didn't understand everything... But what came across to me was Stephan Connor's deep love of research, of discovering the “secrets” of the woods, of bringing the woods to life in sound. And sound is something magical, it touches us all. Thanks to Stephan Connor for this beautiful personal insight into his life and work with these wonderful guitars! And thank you Evan for sharing this very interesting conversation ! Musical greetings from Germany, Angelika 🙏👏👏

Did someone know name of this gutar models

D string 😮

2:50 I agree aesthetically your right.. might do double sided tape too.. please upload more vids made your one of my favourite accounts to follow 👍👍from Australia

How much were you paid to kiss that much ass? Looks awful - took a couple of minutes to tune up.Liar it can take a few days to.a week to stretch them in

Cedar alwaya has a beautiful resonance and a warm tone that makes you want to hug your guitar. With spruce I have always found it hit and miss..... you either get a flat tone or you get something that just blows you away. The spruce classic in this video is better to my ears. Beautiful sustain and clear balanced tone

This is stunningly similar to 川の流れのように please play even if on your own time, mr evan

Great tecnique

Are you kidding 9,000?

Thanks for posting---very interesting insights.

I used to think I prefer warm, dark, and round sounds. Nevertheless, today I’ve come to love your sharp and bright sounds. It is useless to know which one is better. Thank you!

Why is the cedars nut moved over so far?

3 years on, if you still have it, how has the spruce tone changed?

I like the warmer tone of the Cedar. I'm currently looking at the Alhambra cross-over guitars with their cutaway design and slightly narrower neck and cedar tops.

I am so glad i found you

I've been playing my guitar biult by Toni for almost 15 years now and I would never change or sell it. I was lucky to buy it when he was becoming widely known, but even now, when he's a guitar-luthier-superstar, he - as a human - still is a humble, honest person. A true figure to follow and admire 😊

i have the spruce one! such a great instrument from a great luthier

Very well done. You could really hear the difference.

I do prefer the spruce because it sounds like a guitar with brighter trebles... While the cedar sounds more like a piano with trebles a little bit muffled... But in reality both guitars sound nice.

Wonderful

Hello, just curious to see how it holds up, playability, sounds… ? Cheers

Carbon! :)

I have playing classical guitar for many years reaching an advanced level. However I find these first exercises impossible.

The cedar sounds really good, the spruce is nice also but I prefer the cedar---damn good playing though!

Spruce seems more crisp. Cedar more warm. It's as though the color of the wood is the determining factor...😉

this video was super helpful!

Please do a full version of Mallorca!

How much does this guitar cost?

Would you have to release your thumb or can it just slide against the neck?

Spruce with a advanced guitarist is the go to, you can get that warm sound by playing closer to the neck of the guitar and with your fingertips rather than your nail and then get that shiny and clear high frequencies with the nails, you cant do both with a cedar guitar

Nice to find something soothing like this while scrolling. Great music 🙌

I hope your doing well, you have very good music😊

Love your playing on both guitars. Imo at the cedar the notes sound more bound together, vs the more distinguished, articulated sound of the notes on the spruce top. I liked them both but would personally prefer the more meloncholic cedar. Which one do you prefer?

Cedar for noob, Spruce for confirmed, perhaps spruce will sound more warm and sweet with time..
