Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"Dake is truly one of my favorite makers of the classical guitar. He's rooted in tradition but incorporates the right amount of modern design to create his own instrument. This guitar is special, the voice is completely satisfying in every way. Pro players and enthusiasts alike will find this their lifelong musical partner...." - Paul Heumiller

"Dake Traphagen has done it again. This guitar is so loud that I had to move the mics back and turn down the levels so they wouldn't get overdriven. The bass is full and clear and the trebles are unbelievable. One of the best sounding classicals I've ever played at Dream Guitars." - Al Petteway
