The condition is good, with no cracks or repairs and only minor playing marks. Not the original golpeador so therefore may have had some polish touch-up at some stage but there is nothing to report in the wood surface.
This flamenco guitar is a bit of a monster. It has a big, powerful sound with tremendous treble voice. From the cedar front, the sound is dark, serious and earthy. From a period i.e. the mid-70's that so many people consider to be when many of the finest Gerundino's were produced, this is a superb example that can produce those strong, aggressive yet plaintive sounds for which these guitars are known.
