1973 Jose Ramirez "1aF" CD/CY

This guitar was built in the famous Jose Ramirez III workshop, which for over half a century has produced instruments performed on by countless professionals from Sting to Segovia, Chet Atkins to Sabicas and Lee Ritenour to Christopher Parkening.

This is an excellent example of a concert flamenco from the golden era of Ramirez. It is in great shape - no cracks/no repairs - only playing wear in the finish, and is ready for immediate use for any professional setting. It is lightweight and comfortable, with a dry and aggressive old-world flamenco sound. An excellent example of a classic sounding and looking Ramirez flamenco.
