Anyone ever play a Lucida Picado 797 flamenco guitar?

Yes, I had 2 of them. First one had a bad buzz like a loose brace. Sent it back and got another one that was hand picked for me. I would classify them much like the Cordoba and other factory guitars in the $1000-$1500 range. I was able to get action down at 12th to 2.8mm and it played acceptable and easy enough, but not as easy as I prefer. Response was a little dull compared to other handmade guitars I have had. Tone was flamenco but not enough sweetness on trebles or growl on basses for me. All in all for the money, the best buy out there in a factory flamenco that has some quality to it. However one may have to go through several to find a good one.
