A guitar that was made to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Francisco Barba’ s guitars. Made with woods of very special quality, and beautiful edging work details. The woods chosen for this magnificent guitar are canadian cedar for the top, with an even and straight grain, and Brazilian rosewood for back and sides, with a chocolate tone and a beautiful fabric, specially ordered by Jose Luis Parreño, a very close friend of Francisco Barba.

The sound emerging from this guitar possesses some special features and nuances, where the flamenco touch from this luthier can be definitely found. The basses are deep and bright with an extraordinarily powerful, the trebles are vivid and crystal clear, attaining a very long sustain. All those features make a piece of work with unique sound quality that sublimely combines power volume and quality.

This guitar has got medium tension, and a reduced height of strings in the saddle and fingerboard, providing the guitarist with a high degree of comfort for both hands, as well as an easy performance.

The condition of this flamenco guitar is excellent and completely original, without any crack or repair whatsoever.
