Flamenco guitar Geoff Rashe 2024

This flamenco guitar was made by the master guitar maker Geoff Rashe, 2024. Geoff Rashe understood the fusion of art and science since he was really young. First, as an Applied Maths student, at California University (San Diego). Then, he moved to the design and making of surfboards, while he was studying to get his Literature degree. Surf and his study of Spanish language led him to moving to Spain in 1990, starting an everlasting relationship with Spanish art and music, and very particularly, with the flamenco guitar. When he made his first guitar, he felt he had found his true vocation. As it was impossible to find master luthiers to teach him in California, he started an obsessive search for guitars made by the very best luthiers in history. Eventually, he collected some of the best instruments made by Manuel Ramírez, Santos Hernández, Domingo Esteso, Hermanos Conde, Gerundino Fernández, Manuel Reyes and Marcelo Barbero. He studied these instruments down to the tiniest detail. In fact, he considered these luthier his own mentors. Currently, Geoff Rashe lives in his hometown: Santa Cruz, California. SEE NEW

This guitar is made with high quality and beautiful woods. The top has got a straight and even grain all along its surface. The back and sides are made of Pao Ferro with a straight grain and breathtakingly beautiful shades, providing the guitar with great beauty and elegance.

PERFECT, that’s the sound of this guitar. As we’ve mentioned on other occasions, guitars by this artisan share an impressive similarity with those by Marcelo Barbero, preserving that same acoustic essence with a dry, hollow, and penetrating sound but with an added power that makes them very appealing. The bass strings have an impressive yet bright depth, giving rasgueos a very defined and clear tone. The trebles are crystalline and penetrating, with a very prolonged sustain.

This guitar has the highly-valued “rebound beating” on the right hand, combined with fantastic softness on the left one, thus accomplishing the “perfect instrument”, should we want to spend hours and hours playing non-stop with a nice feeling of ease.

The condition of this flamenco guitar is new.
