does your guitar have a twisted neck?

please let me know from where i can buy one on the net

thanks

[antoniolopezp]

It's not a twisted neck, the frets are at an angle.

I don't think you can buy in in the net.

Mine was built by Abel García.

I don't believe this piece can be played any better than what we've just heard. Hypnotic, beautiful phrasing and ultra-classic tone.

Fabulous job Antonio,

David

Thank you, David

I appreciate the comment. Saludos

I believe Satie would have fully approved of this performance of his music.

It's nice to hear someone playing Satie's work like it was meant to played. ... soft, heartfelt and without borders. A lot of people rush his songs or play them too rigidly, and they just don't sound right. This was spot on. Great work.

Awsome, probably the best interpretation I've ever heard...

Thank you so much!

@antoniolopezp Hello Antonio,Great to hear you playing Satie....Really lovely tone from that guitar. I would really like to see it "in the flesh".The slanted frets are interesting to hear about and does this enhance the tuning in any form or fashion? What notes are the 8 individual strings tuned to and do the strings each have their own thickness?This August in the city of Derry our Guitar society cgsni.org in Ireland will have its annual Guitar Fest.We have a lady member called Graciela.

Played with great expression and in my opinion interpretation...The guitar fits the piece most profoundly. I think that this 8 stringed instrument could easily tackle "Romance " by Rubenstein....I have never ever heard the latter piece played on guitar...only Cello and on Y/Tube most beautifully by the late Gregor Piatigorsky.Greetings from Ireland by the way.
