Just want to drop by and say how happy i am with the new picado sp/mp concierto. it's a beautiful looking guitar and most importantly a beautiful sounding guitar. it has the best high E and G strings i've ever heard. (i've owned some well know builder guitars). the finsh is immaculate and i mean immaculate. john and ryan conveyed my quirky requests to sr. picado and he made them happen. love the FLAT neck and the big frets!!! i started gigging with it two days after i recieved it. this is not to say i don't still love the teodoro perez but, it's to give an idea of the company it shares. well, enough of my yapping, i'm off to play some guitars. thanks again to Trilogy Guitars(john and ryan) and to Mr. and Mrs. Picado.
