I'm over the moon with my L32, if I could spec a guitar, it'd likely be the same apart from I love the celtic knot "A" headstock, and I'd love snakewood binding, because I have an electric 7 string neck made of snakewood, and it's bloomin' hard stuff...would be a 'mare to work I think, but very resistant to bumps. Doesn't need finishing as it's so close pored.... the feel of it raw is very smooth.

Gotoh 510's too....smooth and no "rock" in the posts.

Wouldn't do anything that changed the sound though, Avalon have got the tone very right IMO, the trebles up the neck, right to the last fret(and I do go up there) are big and fat and don't get lost pedalled against open low strings.

An Estaban custom with #3 plywood soundboard, formica sides and back, their world renown bracing system, plastic tuning gears with lead based paint finish.

yo dude, riverdog here from diagnaly across the usa from u in fla; man i know ur post is a ways back but i'm new and read it and it cracked me up cuz i've got an estaban! thnx 4 the laugh, but u know what; its a nylon stringer and it aint the worst thing i've played, maybe i'll post some pics and you'll get the gas!

Actually, I recently had the opportunity to play an Estaban. It was an orgasm of the senses. Joking aside, I guess it was okay. Playable, and you get what you can afford. But there are better scores out there for the price. What gets me most is the Zorro shill on TV.
