This flamenco guitar has been made by the great luthier Francisco Barba in 2013. He is regarded as one of the best guitar makers ever and his guitars have been (and are) praised and used by some of the best guitarists in the world: Niño de Pura, Manuel Molina, Rafael Riqueni, Pepe Habichuela… and so many others.
This flamenco guitar is built with superior quality woods. The German spruce sound top has a perfect veining: straight, uniform and very marked over its entire surface. The back and sides are made of cypress wood, whose beauty and quality are simply magnificent. The edging work details and finishing are simply perfect.
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 strumming, and the trebles, bright and crystal clear, with a sustained sound that sees itself amplified by the wide variety of harmonics that come from all its notes along the fretboard.
The tension is medium, and the distance between strings in the saddle and fingerboard is perfect, all of which provide this guitar with an easy performance and a high degree of comfort for the guitarist.
The condition of this flamenco guitar is excellent, and completely original, without any crack or repair whatsoever.
