i.e. their guitars vary significantly from one guitar to the next. I don't mean quality, I mean the sound.
I know a good luthier who made a few, I can remember trying 2, one I loved, one did nothing for me. If you go to try Lowdens or Avalons, you will get the odd one that sounds a little better, but they are all basically predictable in terms of how they sound
I have a classical from a one-man workshop, I have learned it sounds a lot better than most he makes, I bought it used, and was able to try it against others (in fact I had expected to buy a Ramirez 1A instead)
so I have always been wary of commissioning guitars from newer builders, I prefer to buy one that I can try first
Very true. I think it's true of any builder to some extent. Even the good builders will have some magical ones and some that are just good. This is what puts me off custom orders.
