Flamenco guitar Felipe Conde FC28 2011 Ex-Diego del Morao

This flamenco guitar has been made by the master luthier Felipe Conde, in his workshop, located in 4 Arrieta Street, 2011. Felipe Conde is currently the greatest representative of one of the most prestigious firms of Spanish guitar in history: Hermanos Conde. It is inevitable, just like when we talk about Hermanos Conde we all recall Paco de Lucía with his inseparable guitar from this firm, the same as Pepe Habichuela, Moraito Chico, Cepero, and an endless list of artists who captivated us with their music, born from pure genius and inspiration, where the instrument plays an essential role in the musician´s creative process. Well, this is precisely the secret of the firm. Hermanos Conde succeeded in instilling a very characteristic sound into their guitars. It was different from all the other ones, which the great musicians of that time loved, so the artist felt deeply linked to that sound when they composed and interpreted their music.

The woods employed for this guitar is German spruce for the top and Madagascar rosewood for back and sides. The top has got a very marked, straight and even grain along its whole surface. The back and sides are made of Madagascar rosewood, with an outstanding quality and beauty.

This flamenco guitar has belonged to the genius of rhythm, the master Diego del Morao. This model of flamenco guitar, FC28, is one of the most wanted instruments in the second-hand market. A truly extraordinary guitar with ‘many hours and experiences’, which have undoubtedly contributed to evolve and ‘make’ its sound. An extraordinary volume, an overwhelmingly flamenco character and a ‘dry’ and ‘hollow’ timbre typical of the best guitars over 40 years old… it has it all!

The strings height and adjustment which this guitar allows is simply perfect, this permits an extremely comfortable touch in both hands and an increase in fluidity when playing the instrument.

The condition of this flamenco guitar is excellent and completely original, without any kind of cracks or repairs whatsoever.
