Comments:
This is a re-edition of a particular 1915 flamenco guitar of Domingo Esteso (a former worker for Manuel Ramirez until 1916-1917) whose nephews, Faustino and Mariano Conde founded the well-known Conde Hermanos business. It is the most expensive model of their range and today lists new for over €17,000.
The sound is clear and crisp; very flamenco and with some depth and warmth characteristic of the vintage guitars style.
Lovely to look at and lovely to play, this is a high-end model, by definition of limited availability and well below the new price.Conde Hermanos - Click here to find out more about this maker
