Hi everyone,

This maybe is a stupid question

I have been playing classical guitar for two months now coming from a self taught approach with acoustic guitar.

I bought this guitar in photo for 550€ from a guy that used it for 10 years for music school.

I liked it immediately even if I saw some defects mostly on the paint, but the feeling was nice since I got it in my hand.

I took if to a luthier close to where I live (he is specialized in classical guitars he makes guitars also for Siccas)

He basically told me I didn't make a good deal, and with the same price I could have bought some better "factory" guitars.

I went to try other guitars like Yamaha and Alhambra, Manuel Rodriguez etcetera up to 1200€ but I didn't have the same good feeling both in playability and sound.

Here is the question, I don't feel this guitar being shit because I got used to it and now other guitars don't feel that good or he was excessively prejudiced because the guitar has been made by another luthier maybe not as pro as he is?

I attach also a video of me playing just to let you hear a sample of the sound.

Thanks for the patience if you read it all 😅
