I don't know about the flemenco's....but I like all they're classical models. I might buy the 1a this fall

Have no personal experience with these instruments. I don't like the fact that all their flamencos come without tapplates.

A flamenco without tapplates. That's sort of like trying to play the guitar (in flamenco style) without a low E string.

No Tap Plates!!!!!! :shock: Really??? All the ones i've seen had them..........
Hmmmmmmmmm????? :?

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in Cashimira Guitars.
In answer to your question.... Yes. Each flamenco guitar comes with a Lisa de Granada golpeadore which you can shape and install to your own specifications.

In my opinion, the tapplate (golpeador) on a flamenco guitar should be installed by the luthier or shop (factory) who built it. Supplying the consumer with a Lisa golpeador is like an accident waiting to happen. A really good way to mess up a new guitar. Don't ya think?

[Jubilee Valence]

...never done one, but if it's anything like window tint or a democratic bumper sticker(LOLOLOLOL)--forget it! On the golp's, I'd probably let the local luthier "install" it...

[Faya]

Have to put them yourself eh..............????
well........., in that case......i'd probably put on white golps!!!
i really like the look of them!!!! :lol: :lol:

i have put on many of Lisa plates and have never had a problem yet.........., but i know people who just can't seem to do it with out messin' it up... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Jubilee Valence]

LOLOLOLOL....reminds me of the ol' Don Ho jam--*"Tiny Bubbles...",in the golpe....& when they POP!....it looks so HOKEY!--LOLOLOLOL.......well,some folks aint got the 'noive'--but that '57 does look good!!!!--I kinda like the idea of "...which you can shape and install to your own specifications."--the website says they'll install ANYTHING you want---even "pearl" position markers!!!(I prefer "tritium" fret markers myself for night ops,er,uh-"performances!)

[NGiorgio]

I like black position markers ......

Since we're on the topic...

I was eyeing the 145 model for a while. He wants $1450US or so for it, which isn't a bad price, but I'm concerned that being a laminated back, it won't have a great tone.

Anybody ever own or play one?

[Faya]

Still waiting for your reply........... :lol: :P

Hey Stefan*,
nope......., that's why i started this thread............they look nice though.
