My guitar

I play a grande bouche model made by A.L.D. (Gérald Alonso et Fabian Le Dosseur), luthiers working in Rouen, France. I bought it about a year ago through djangobooks (http://www.djangobooks.com/). It cost me a pretty penny, but I'm very satisfied with it. I originally wanted to buy the petit bouche model, but I was told by a few people in the know that it's somewhat easier to play the grande bouche since it has a shorter neck length. Since buying this guitar, I've twice had the action lowered just a bit by Paul Hostetter, a luthier and stringed-instrument repairman/restorer located near San Francisco, California. His website (http://www.lutherie.net/) is full of interesting information and deserves a visit. I've tried various gauges of strings from different makers (John Pearse, D'Addario, Argentine, Galli, Guadalupe), but thus far I've found the John Pearse and Guadalupe strings the most satisfying. If you are not familiar with the Guadalupe company, their website address is http://www.guadalupecustomstrings.com/.
