This flamenco guitar was made in 1907, at Jose Ramirez I´s workshop, who was the most remarkable guitar maker of that time. Every flamenco guitarist would turn to him to improve the low sound scope the guitars had back then.
High quality woods are found in this guitar. German spruce for the top with a fine, linear and straight grain all along its surface, as well as truly exceptional cypress wood.
The sound of this guitar is sweet and warm, with truly beautiful harmonics. A lyrical deep timbre, capable of taking one back to the Spain of that time.
The tension is medium-low, and the height of strings in the saddle and fingerboard is very balanced, with extremely reduced weight, all of which provides the guitarist with a high degree of comfort.
The condition of this guitar is really good, especially bearing in mind the fact that it is more than 100 years old. It has some superficial cracks, although properly repaired and backed up with documentary evidence on the images attached.
