COMPLETE DESCRIPTION
Flamenco guitar built by the dynasty Jose Ramírez, founded in 1890 by Jose Ramírez de Galarreta y Planet, born in Madrid in 1858. He opened his first workshop on the 2nd of the Concepción Jerónimo street. His descendants continued his work there until 1995. Their guitars have been praised by the best guitarists of both flamenco and classical music, among which we can find Serranito, Paco de Lucía, Enrique de Melchor, Jose Antonio Rodríguez, etc.
The selection of woods used for this instrument is cedar of extraordinary quality and a cure that lasted several years for the soundboard, and cypress of extraordinary quality and absolutely stunning beauty for the body (sides and back), its grain straight and uniform.
Thanks to the selection of woods used on this instrument, its sound is exquisite to the ears of both lovers and professionals of flamenco, offering exceptional depth and power on the bass strings, together with powerful and crystalline trebles, as well as great harmonic balance between bass and trebles, giving it its typical and unmistakable sound.
This guitar offers perfect comfort on both of the guitarist’s hands.
The pulsation of this guitar is of medium tension with the strings at the perfect height for performance.
The guitar is in a very good condition, it has some cracks on one of the sides, all of them completely repaired, as well as some attrition near the sound hole.
