I just thru the info on your site and I must say that it is the most extensive guitar building database I've seen online. This kind of stuff you only find by the word of experienced luthiers or in very specific textbooks. I'd like thank and congratulate you Galeazzo for such dedication and excellent work compiling and translating this enciclopedia. It is very kind of you to share this knowledge free of charge, I am sure that as it spreads over the internet, you'll receive more positive feedback!
