Plus: wonderful look and design, well choosen woods with a great smell, correct construction and very pleasant sound. Action is perfect, strings are not too low or too high on the harmonic table and neck, so playability is great.
Cons: bone nut and metallic frets are rough, they have not been polished by the producer. Strings move jerky on the nut grooves and when you play bending you feel and hear a grindy noise. So you have to smooth the grooves of the nut and polish every single fret. This instrument miss an important accessory, a button to attach a strap. Anyway these are little problems. The biggest issue is related to tuning pegs. They appear well made and they are perfectly in the style of an ancient musical instrument, but this system does not offer the precision you want from a 600 euros guitar. So you can polish them, you can use wax or soap or expensive Hill violin pegs compound, you can try to tune the strings many times but every little movement in turning the pegs is approximate and jumps with 10 cents clicks at a time. In my opinion, if you buy a baroque guitar priced 600 euros you want a perfectly tuneable instrument and not a toy guitar for beginning teenagers. This system looks good but there are not solutions; if you want this guitar to be able to tune notes with precision you have to replace the wooden pegs with metal geared machine heads. I have ordered a Grover set (model V97N) from Thomann and for a good price I have been able to eventually solve this great problem. Great sounding guitar with a faboulous look but for this price point you would want something more on construction details and precision.
