New and pristine. Very handsome.
Tobias Braun makes very high quality instruments often with superlative materials. This is in fact a new model with a revised plantilla; an adaption between the two previous models; the 1912 Manuel Ramirez and the 1924 Santos, designed to maintain the quick, Spanish response of the smaller-bodied guitar combined with a rich, deep bass of larger Santos body. This new model has impressive richness and depth of sound yet with greater focus and clarity then the previous models. The projection is particularly good. A fine concert guitar for performer, collector or anyone that appreciates the beauty of this level of craftsmanship.
