The different woods in this flamenco guitar are of the top existing quality. The top are made of german spruce has a totally straight and even grain, which is quite accentuated. The back and sides are made of cypress wood, whose beauty and quality are simply magnificent.

The sound is pure elegance, with deep, well defined bass stops, and crystal-clear trebles, which are also especially sweet. This guitar has a very particular flamenco timbre, surprising and captivating us from the very first chord. The sound quality remains over time, even though the strings are quite worn out. However, this quality, along with the extreme confort felt when playing it, make this guitar an instrument one would never stop playing.

The tension of this flamenco guitar is medium, and the height of strings in saddle and fingerboard is very reduced. The height on the fret 12 is 2,5 mm, thereby ensuring an extraordinary level of comfort.

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