1999 Antonio Raya Pardo SP/CSAR

This guitar, a spruce top with gorgeous CSA rosewood back and sides (almost "Miguel Rodriguez Churchdoor-like" with its contrasting sap and heartwood), is a true beauty, in terms of both its elegant appearance and incredible tone. Materials and polish are top-notch, and the subtle, clean aesthetics make for a beautiful guitar, with a tasteful tieblock and tapered center-strip of figured maple down the back. The sound is truly impressive, crisp and loud with soulful Granada flair. Condition is excellent with only some mild playing wear in the finish. A very capable player's guitar, and a fantastic value.
