    Hi Kirk ,

    Thank you for your reply.
    I already have an Alhambra P8 beautiful sound , if only it had a CW So that I could reach the 16th fret.
    I am at the moment learning to play Billies Bounce using my Gibson J35..because at least it's a bit easier to get some high fret access..still difficult.
    The sound is also just not suited to this music .
    Though maybe a nylon string CW is my best option .
    I will take a look at Yahama .

    Mai

    A couple of clinics with Paul Meyers convinced me I should get a nylon string. This recording doesn’t do his tone justice. In person it’s great. But he amplifies it even in a small room.

    Just wonderful Kirk !
    I too have seen some amazing clips this morning .

    I have since then found a couple of nylon /electric guitars here..a bit over budget but are recommended for Jazz.

    Takamine TS132SC
    And Takamine TC 135SC Axe ..this looks great ( though even more over budget..) .

    I really like the look of the Cordoba one though and it's about the same price as the cheaper ( or rather not as expensive Takamine.

    Saw a great video jazz , one on a Cordoba classic and the other on Gibson Es 175 ..beautiful .

    Charlie Byrd on nylon ..just wow !!!
