DVD - ERVIN SOMOGYI - VOICING THE GUITAR: THE 2009 HEALDSBURG LECTURE
CLEARANCE PRICED! SAVE $9.95! If you are interested in guitar construction, then you've probably been trying to figure out how to make a guitar with a really good voice. Ervin Somogyi's guitars are known for having extraordinarily satisfying voices; they have been described as lustrous, deep, and astonishing. Having reached the age where he is ready to share his knowledge, he has also become the premier teacher of that final level of lutherie work: Tone. This DVD is the companion to Ervin's two volume book about the guitar and its sound. Pertains equally to classic and steel string guitars. 90 min.
