Thanks for sharing this. I see the bent top really facilitated his playing at the upper end of the fingerboard. Must make you feel like a proud father.

Non, non. You would holler, "Guitare!" on French T.V. if you want them to understand you.  :wink:

Very nice video, by the way. Did I see Leonard Cohen in the audience?

ya it is amazing to final reach Thathigh level of my craft. Lots of hard work, study and experimentation. It is surreal for me to watch this and remember when that guitar was on my bench.
Here is a link to photos of the guitar. It is only the second one built with that design.

Jim, your guitars are truly stunning, and Roland is truly a brilliant player.  It must be a pretty special feeling watching him play it on the big stage.

I don't think I've ever heard a classical guitar with that much sustain!!! That is one hell of an instrument! Only the second of the design? WOW! OUTSTANDING!
