This guitar was built in the famous workshop of Jose Ramirez III, which produced instruments performed on by countless professionals over the years from Sting to Segovia, Chet Atkins to Sabicas and Lee Ritenour to Christopher Parkening. It is very easy to play, with a lovely neck and easy action. Additionally, Yuris Zeltins recently refretted it and gave it a fresh, easy set up. The tone is thick yet clear, and has that essential warm, mysterious and moody quality that made Ramirez famous. Stamped on the inside by "CLL" (Carmelo Llerena - For a complete list of Ramirez luthiers from this era, click here), who still builds guitars in the Ramirez shop to this day. It does have some minor repairs and refinish in French polish, again all done expertly by Yuris Zeltins and is in concert-ready, excellent condition for the recitalist looking for that classic and timeless Ramirez sound.
