This flamenco guitar was built by Californian luthier Lester DeVoe in 2005. DeVoe is regarded as one of the finest flamenco guitar makers in the world, and his instruments have been praised and played by renowned guitarists such as Paco de Lucía, Vicente Amigo and Sabicas, both in recording studios and on stage.
The woods used for this flamenco guitar are of the highest available quality. The soundboard is made from German spruce, featuring highly pronounced, straight and uniform grain. The sides and back are made from Indian rosewood, with straight grain and beautiful natural tones. The overall finish is understated and elegant.
Unfortunately, this master luthier closed his order books and workshop in 2024, making his guitars increasingly difficult to find.
What truly sets Lester DeVoe’s guitars apart is the feeling of having an exceptionally easy-to-play instrument in your hands. You simply play better. The guitar responds instantly and effortlessly, with remarkable power, making you want to keep playing it. To use an analogy, it is like driving a high-end sports car for the first time. It is no surprise that guitarists such as Paco de Lucía, Vicente Amigo and Sabicas have praised his instruments and recorded and performed with them on numerous occasions. This guitar combines a huge sound with immediate response and an unmistakable flamenco tone.
The guitar has an excellent setup and offers an exceptionally comfortable action, allowing the guitarist to explore any technical or harmonic resource with maximum ease.
The condition of this flamenco guitar is excellent and completely original, with no cracks or repairs of any kind.
