Description

Like Santos and Barbero, Manuel de la Chica was at home building both classical and flamenco guitars, indeed his finer instruments have the flexibility of being played by either style. This is such an example - it has a lyrical, singing quality to it yet at the same time can bite if pushed. Although it does have a tap plate for flamenco playing it would also be of great service in the hands of any classical performer. De la Chica instruments are regularly compared to Santos Hernandez in terms of quality and style of sound, as well as for aesthetics - and this instrument is a fine example of just this type, but at a fraction of the price of a Santos! This is a phenomal mid-century style Spanish guitar by any measure.
