This guitar was built for a young classical guitarist in Troy, Michigan named Kairey Wang. I feel as though it is the best guitar, or at least among the best guitars that I have made thus far. It is very well balanced like each 640 scale guitar I have built and it has an abundant palate of dynamics and colors.  I met Kairey Wang and her parents at the GFA in Louisville, KY in 2013 and have since become very fortunate to be the recipient of her parents hospitable and friendly nature. I look forward to adding more to this story page of this guitar and its owner as time continues.
