Guitar maker Amsterdam
This is Yuan Zhihong. He is a real guitar enthusiast. He plays at least one hour a day but preferably longer although there’s not always time to do so. Yuan is a very kind and nice man. He took Esther and me out on a trip through Hangzhou, a beautiful place in the eastern part of China. This picture was taken at the Dragons Well , a famous region for green tea.
Yuan plays a concert model which in China is called a 1A guitar.
