This flamenco guitar\u00a0<\/strong>was built by the legendary master luthier Santos Hern\u00e1ndez in 1932. He was Manuel Ram\u00edrez\u00b4s best disciple, working for him for 23 years. In 1918 he opened his own workshop in 23 Aduana Street. Santos Hern\u00e1ndez built around 300 guitars since 1916 until his very death. These guitars were used by many of the greatest guitarists of that time: Ram\u00f3n Montoya, Andr\u00e9s Segovia, Sabicas, Ni\u00f1o Ricardo, Regino Sainz de la Maza, etc.<\/p>\n

The different kinds of wood used in its construction have an excellent quality. German spruce can be seen in the top, with a very marked, straight and even grain. On the other hand, Spanish Royal Cypress is the kind of wood employed for the back and sides.<\/p>\n

This guitar\u2019s sound is truly wonderful; you just have to listen to a single chord to realize you are in front of an instrument with a quality far beyond the rest. A specially flamenco timbre which is full of personality and character. Bright and harsh bass stops, with deep bass and crystal-clear, sweet treble, where a wide variety of harmonics flow easily.<\/p>\n

The tension of this flamenco guitar is medium-low, and the height of strings in saddle and fingerboard is reduced. The height on the fret 12 is 2,5 mm, which allows our left hand to do its job very easily and fluently.<\/p>\n

The condition of conservation is very good, it keeps the originality on all its parts including shellac\u2026 It only has a small and superficial crack on the back, almost invisible to eyesight, which does not require any repair, due to its location and lightness. We must highlight the construction firmness this instrument shows, which make it appropriate to play it and use it in any situation, getting away from the rumors that say vintage guitars are fragile and delicate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
