2003 Francisco Estrada Gomez CD/IN

An incredibly well-made guitar by one of Argentina's best builders in the past several decades. We worked closely with this maker for many years in the early 2000s and are as delighted with this guitar now as we were then. The sturdier style of build is strongly influenced by Fleta and Friederich, as is the sound which is dense and deep. The cedar quality is very strong with rich overtones in every note, throughout every register. It's a bold instrument with plenty of power for any concert setting. Great value for the price.
