1999 - number 769 - named 'La Cubillas'
East Indian rosewood with broad, boxwood purflings to back and sides.
All shellac french-polished.

Reichl - Lansdorfer pattern with white mother-of-pearl buttons, mounted on a decorated headface.
65cm with 19 frets on an ebony fingerboard

In absolutely lovely condition given that is has been owned since new by an active professional - a handful of little marks only.
All original; no repairs; no cracks; original finish and frets.
This is a lovely instrument. Light in weight; deep in voice with an air resonance close to E, it has a typical Romanillos sound with deep bass, strong middle and a very clear, singing treble reminding me much more of some of the mid and late-70's Romanillos than those from the later 80's & 90's. Really lovely.
