These are the Premium Gotoh Tuners I requested. I absolutely love them. |
Kris Barnett recently sent me more pictures of my upcoming instrument!
I may have been excited before, but now I’m even more excited!
This armrest is removable. It is a first for a classical guitar. The arm rest is held in place with magnets. A truly unique innovation. |
Everything looks beautiful. I can wait to try it out. I’ve never own a classical guitar with an arm rest before, let alone with with a removable arm rest. I wonder how it feels when playing.
Seeing but not playing this guitar feels like torture to me. |
This is going to be very interesting.
Congrats on your Barnett. I have number 20. Brazillian/Cedar with armrest. I requested it be permanently fixed to the guitar. It is a phenominal guitar. If you want, I can send you some sound samples so you can get an idea of what yours will sound like…..

Hi Bryn,
Thanks for your kind offer! That would be great.
Can I share your sound samples with my readers?
You can send me the sound samples to dedrick.koh@gmail.com
Dedrick,
Just sent you some sound clips.

Derick,
saw your posting on Delcamp and leads me here. What a beauty you have!
I am a causal player and collector of classical guitar in Singapore.
Thanks!

Hi SS,
I took delivery of my Kris Barnett instrument about 2 weeks ago.
I'm quite impressed by what this young luthier has managed to accomplish with his short tenure making classical guitars.
I will be writing a 'review' of the instrument in about 2-3months time.
It's more of an 'impressions' article than a 'review' though.
I don't really think its fair to 'review' something as subjective as a musical instrument.
Please get in touch with me. I am very interested to get you opinion on Kris’s work. I am looking to have him build a guitar for me, however I first want to speak to some experienced players that are using his guitars.
