This flamenco guitar has been made by the great luthier Francisco Barba in 2018. 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.
The different woods in this flamenco guitar are of the top existing quality. The top is made of canadian cedar, with an outlined grain, straight and smooth, that endorse its exceptional quality. The back and sides are made of Indian rosewood, with a straight grain and beautiful tones. The finishing is elegant and sober.
The sound emerging from this guitar possesses some special features and nuances, where the flamenco touch from this luthier can be definitely found, with deep and bright basses, 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, keeping an identical tone and volume for every single note all along the fingerboard.
The tension of this flamenco guitar is medium, and the height of strings in saddle and fingerboard is very reduced, providing us with a high degree of comfort for both hands.
The condition of this flamenco guitar is new.
