Why would you be embarrassed? It took a fair amount of digging for Jeff to come up with the facts. I agree with others who have said the important thing is you're happy with your guitar. You're/we're not the schmucks. The defrauders are the schmucks. Worse than that, really, but this is a public forum. Downing [This message has been edited by DB in PDX (edited 08-19-2004).]
Jeff Hildreth Member	posted 08-24-2004 05:05 PM Found an Ortega for sale that has a bit of a curiousity on the Label The top of the Label is the usual Domingo Ortega (machine printed) then Guitarra (also machine printed) then on the next line hand printed in ink: C S A- C E D R O Cedro is easy.. its a cedar top.. and as this refers to a type of wood.. I am assuming that CSA refers to the wood for the backs and sides... I have no clue what CSA may mean, I have never seen this before.. Does anyone else have an idea? Caviuna Special Americano ?? Jeff
Regg Member	posted 09-13-2004 06:15 PM Old news I guess, but I just got this response from an email I sent when this thread was started.... Domingo Ortega is a brand of Madinter. The Guitars under this name are only made by the best Luthier. Therefore, I cannot answer your question for professional reasons. I hope you understand it. Best regards, Vidal de Teresa. MADINTER TRADE
Jeff Hildreth Member	posted 09-13-2004 08:13 PM And the best luthier is: Miguel Malo Badia Sanchis Carpio Carrillo A non answer but understandable the next question for them to stay on a roll If the best luthier makes these is he also signing Domingo Ortegas name and If so is this not a misrepresentation that Sr. Ortega is a real living person..? Es verdad?
