Official Luthiers Forum!

playing the guitars -
i was amazed at the huge sound his guitars had!
compared the the guitar i brought along with me it seemed as if my guitar sounded like what one of Boaz guitars would sound like had you put cotton balls in your ears and listened to it while standing outside the room.
the projection,balance and presence was astonishing!
Boaz showed me several guitars -
his flagship -"clarita negra", some traditional "kasha/schneider" guitar, a "clarita" flat top-steel string, his ouds, archtops and some torres style instruments - both classicals and flamencos.

Awesome guitars Udi! Very interesting designs... Thanks for sharing those cool pix!

That end graft area reminds me of a pool cue.

[QUOTE=Hesh1956] Udi what finish does Boaz use?[/QUOTE]

Hesh, Boaz sprays nitro-cellulose lacquer which he imports from mexico - i forgot the brand though.

Mr Boaz is so "dope", that if he had an inkling of how good he actually was, his brain would blow out of his ears - this is why these great builders must be the humble, kind, unassuming individuals that they inevitably astonishingly are - I have been a fan for many years - he never fails to astonish me!

Unique and impressive work! Thanks for taking the time to take photos, Udi, and please pass along our thanks to Boaz for sharing his shop with us!

That thought is seconded Carlton, i'm really impressed with his work also!

Udi also
please tell him to learn the basic internet skills it would take to become a contributing member of the OLF as well - what an honour it would be to have him as a part of our community!
perhaps his computer assistant could make a bookmark for the OLF site and have his settings set to auto-login,

that way all he would have to do is hit one link button - a few mouse clicks - and he would be IN.
Cheers
