The "Antigua" is the newest model from the Perez shop, and we're very excited to have one in our stock. Like the "Concierto" it is all-French polished and has single sides (unlike the Maestro and Especial which are doubled). However it features beautiful wild Indian rosewood for the back and sides and a more compact body size (hence its name - hearkening back more of a "Torres" shaped plantilla and box depth). Although the body proportions are smaller than their standard sized guitar, it still has regular playing measurements (650mm string length, 51mm nut width) and the same very distinctly Spanish quality of sound, with a full, romantic tone and quick attack. Simply put, this is a fantastic top-level concert guitar by any standard - particularly for the player seeking a modern Madrid-style instrument with the more compact feel of an "antigua" guitarra.
