Classical Guitars - Kent Guitar Classics

Tezanos Perez of Madrid

• Year:

  Made in 2003. Model Concierto - no. 566.

• Body:

  Rosewood - quite plain and sombre but many makers admire and prefer such quarter-sawn boards which are more rare these days. The sides are lined for stiffness

• Front:

  European spruce - very even, silky-grained and lemon shellac-polished. With a lovely geometric rosette in yellows, oranges and ochre colours. Rope-twist soundboard purflings

• Tuners:

  Fustero tuners with engraved sideplates.

• Scale:

  65cm

• Neck Width:

  52mm at the nut

• Condition:

  Condition is as new with the exception of an area of shallow nail marks on the back of the neck - easily can be polished out.

• Comments:

  Marianos Tezanos and Gregorio Perez, both ex-Ramirez artisans, joined forces to make some very good instruments in typical Madrid style with similarities to those of Bernabe and Contreras for example. The Concierto model is a very respectable concert guitar with good dynamic range and balance. Soundwise, it has clarity, sparkle and projection - crisp ponticellos and very responsive to vibrato. In recent years Tezanos and Perez have separated and gone their own ways so this very nice model is no longer being made - even more pleasing therefore to find one in such super condition. Here then is a very good Madrid concert guitar in near new condition and priced well below those of many others from that city
