Guitar maker Amsterdam
This is Tarik Residbegovic. I wrote about him earlier. I met him and his parents at the Sarajevo Guitar Festival. When I got home I received a message from his father
Tarik played at the competition in Omis, Croatia, last weekend and took a second prize in his category. He also had a very successful masterclass with a respectful professor Xhevdet Sahatxhija from Zagreb.
It’s always nice to keep track of the players of my instruments.
