Flamenco guitar Gerundino Hijo 2015

This flamenco guitar was made by the luthier Gerundino Fernández Llamas, son of the great maker Gerundino Fernández, in 2015. Born in 1974 in Almería, he started helping his father with guitar making since he was really young. He helped with tasks such as sanding woods, put pawns, glue bottoms and tops, etc). His link with wood goes beyond guitar making. That is, he knows a lot about this material, since he used to go with his uncle Eladio Fernández for spotting, cutting and selecting the best woods, which his father would later employ for his guitar making. For several years he devoted himself to the in-depth study of the guitar, and to a comprehensive revision of his father´s whole career. In 2015 he decided to continue the family tradition, thus starting to make his own guitars, using the techniques, tools and woods inherited from his father.

The different kinds of wood used in its manufacturing are of an extraordinary quality, the sound top is made of German spruce, with an even and straight grain on the entire surface. The back and sides are made of beautiful cypress tree, with a straight and homogeneous veining.

Gerundino Jr´s guitar are quite a surprising case, despite being a guitar maker with a short career. He succeeded in making quick-sound instruments with a very flamenco touch, as well as a perfect control of the heights of strings in the saddle and fingerboard, all of which is really hard to attain, even after long years of experience. This guitar stands out due to its lightness and its tremendously flamenco timbre, with very quick volume, thus becoming the perfect guitar to accompany the singing and dancing.

The tension of this flamenco guitar is medium, and the heights of the strings in fingerboard and saddle are perfect, providing us with such a high degree of comfort that one will be delighted.

The condition is excellent and completely original, without any cracks or repairs whatsoever.
