The first day of the first Lockdown in the Netherlands March 2020 I got a call from my Luthier Kolya Panhuyzen telling me after a waiting period for building from over 3 years (!!); hey, Nathas, your guitar is ready!<\/p>\n

That wasn\u2019t the bubbly moment (I\u2019d bought a nice bottle of bubbles to celebrate my upcoming new guitar) that I had awaited for so long I can tell you\u2026.<\/p>\n

Like all others and specifically musicians that immediately had an almost empty agenda right that day, I had no clue if I even could afford this long longed for guitar. With great sadness I told Kolya that I probably could not buy this instrument, even though I badly needed it and waited for\u00a0 so long.<\/p>\n

Kolya and I go back way in time and therefor there was a lot of understanding. Luckily for me he\u00a0 gave me time to think and arrange\u2026.. A good solution for both gave the option to \u201csurvive\u201d the first lockdown with this first beautiful instrument. How grateful I was to have a fresh beauty in the house to inspire me and get me through the many lonely & insecure days. Unfortunately some problems a cured and a new instrument had to be built for me, but I\u2019ll never forget \u201cFred\u201d as I called this guitar \ud83d\ude09 Yes, I know: why the\u2026.. you give your guitar a name and above that: Fred???? Hahahaha that my dear readers is top-secret yet.<\/p>\n

6 months later and yes, another lockdown further down the road, another guitar entered my life.<\/p>\n

A new beautiful baby guitar (as she needs to be played in for an about half a year too!) is in my hands!<\/p>\n

Luise that is (after one of the greatest woman guitar players ever: Luise Walker).<\/p>\n

A very new baby indeed with new construction (lattice) and new moods & colors. Therewith the need and curiosity was born to try out new strings. And guess what? Yes, this vlogblog\u00a0 was born too\u2026.<\/p>\n

I present you a view into the four different marks & strings sets that I\u2019ve been using so far on this guitar, a ceder top, lattice brace guitar.<\/p>\n

Hope it serves you well too!<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n

Nathasja<\/p>\n
