Beautiful piece and playing Rick. Reminds me of Bolero by Ravel a bit. Fantastic. How did you record the piece?
I almost bought a Bristlecone a couple of months ago at a guitar show. Met Mark Blanchard there. Great instruments. Both guitars sounded great. The Blanchard seems to have a drier tone with strong fundamentals, the Collings a bit fuller with more overtones which I think is a Colling's trait. Both sounded absolutely great!

Thanks Jim. I am happy with the recording sound on both guitars. It was miked with mikes angled XY but separated about 10" and about 14" out from the guitar. Only some reverb was added, no compression, equalization, ect.. Rick
