    2003 Thucea. Very powerful and even. Exceptional clarity, no muddiness anywhere. Firm yet warm tone, very focused. Easy to play, very responsive to the right hand. Excellent sustain. Good variety of color. Unique tone quality (soundboard of cedar and spruce). Perfect workmanship and highest quality of materials. The builder is thought by some to be the best in the world right now. One ding but otherwise light wear. If interested, leave e mail address in your follow up.

      1971 Ramirez 1A "CLL" Classical Guitar Serial# 4935

      – Cedar top, Brazilian back and sides

      – 663 scale

      – action on base E = 1.0mm at fret 1 and 4.0 mm at fret 12

      – action on treb E = .7mm at fret 1 3.5mm at fret 12

      This guitar was built by Carmello Llerena (CLL). CLL guitars along with MT and AM are the most rare and special Ramirez guitars ever built. Carmello Llerena is STILL the shop supervisor at Ramirez! A friend of mine has taken lessons from Christopher Parkening for years and he tells me Parkening plays a CLL.
      The guitar looks very good for it’s age but more importantly it feels and SOUNDS fantastic. It has the haunting base, clear trebbles and great sustain that only a Cedar top 663 with a transverse brace can create. It’s my opinion (and thousands agree) the full scale Ramirez is the most beautiful of all guitars but it is also the hardest to tame. If you’re not a serious and physical player, I would definetly opt for something easier to handle.

      As for the condition of this guitar, it’s as solid as a rock. The neck is straight. The action is where most pros like it and it does not buzz even when played hard. Some like the action a little lower and the saddle is 2.5 mm higher than the bridge. (This means if you lower the saddle 1mm it will lower the action at the 12th fret 1/2 mm.) The guitar has two perfectly repaired cracks in the top. They can’t be felt and look like a slightly darker grain line. I’ve owned the guitar for several years and no other cracks have developed. If you keep the humidity at about 45%, this guitar will last for many more generations.

      This is a one of a kind ‘guitarra especial’. It has two unique features: 1)The back of the headstock is closed 2)the back and sides are made of wenge. The guitar has a golpeador and a very low flamenco action. It plays very easily. It has a canadian ceder top. It has a small crack just below the bridge and two on the back, hence the low price. The cracks are easy to repair by any luthier and don’t affect the sound in any way. This is a great chance to buy a very collectible instument at a even greater price! Pic’s on request.

    97 Gerundino Fernandez Flamenco Blanca(Cypress/Cedar)
    This is maybe the last one made by the master himself,I can’t sure but maybe somebody can prove this,as I know 1997s is the last year Mr.Gerundino made guitars himself,and he has retired in later the same year 1997s,now Mr.Gerundino has gone for four years already,so who knows.this one is in the best condition(only few light playing wears),sounding really as great as the legendary,I ask $11,800 for this one.
    the best flamenco guitars in its field,you must know how they sound would be if you have ever touched the REAL GERUNDINO guitars,so just save my words here.

  24. 2003 Paul Fischer taut model for sale
    Dick

    This guitar was made by one of the world’s great builders. When I bought this guitar the builder wrote me that he was particularly happy with it. This model was played by Jason Vieaux for many years. It has a beautiful, warm, and refined sound that is intoxicating. The sustain is fabulous. Its ability to separate voices has been described by one dealer as exceeding even Fletas. Its projection is absolutely outstanding. Hearing Vieaux in concert with this guitar model proved to me those claims of superior projection. If there is an easier guitar to play then I’ve never owned or played one.

    The price is $9500. The condition is excellent with only the most minor wear.

    Also for sale is a wonderful 1969 Rubio lute in excellent condition. $3200.

          The sound is wonderful, full and loud, far superior to my Contreras guitar. The condition is very good for its age. There is some crazing of the lacquer but only superficial. I’m looking for upwards of £3000. It’s certainly worth it. If you’re interested I can take lots of photos.

        The top is Cedar. The back and sides are Indian Rosewood. I would describe the condition as very good, especially considering its age. There is a little crazing of the lacquer. Obviously I can supply photos if you like.
        If you would like to try out the guitar, I live in Stockport, Cheshire.
        Contact details are [email protected] or you can call me on 07951 516975

  47. 1969 Rubio 8 course Renaissance lute
    Dick

    This lute was made in 1969 by David Rubio, one of the most highly regarded luthiers in history. Rubio was famous for making Julian Bream’s guitars and lutes in the 1960’s. This particular lute is considered by Paul Fischer to be what he termed a "transition" instrument. It was built more lightly and with tied frets than previous lutes. Bream’s 1967 Rubio lute (recently for sale for a $20,000 price) was heavier and with metal fixed frets. While my lute is representative of the movement toward more historically accurate lutes, it remains, in my opinion, the perfect lute for a guitarist who wishes to play early music on the right instrument. It has a stiffness in its response and a power and projection much more like a modern guitar. Going between this lute and a guitar becomes an easy transition for a performer. Its volume and projection in a hall are superb.
    This lute is in excellent condition with no cracks. It is perfectly playable. Its only issue is that the polish needs to be "re-freshed" under the 1st and 2nd courses…a very minor matter.
    Price is $3200.

  48. 1969 Rubio 8 course Renaissance lute
    Dick

    This lute was built by David Rubio, famous for building guitars and lute for Julian Bream. He is among the best luthiers in history. This particular instrument was considered by Paul Fischer to be a "transition" lute. It was lightly built with tied frets as opposed to Bream’s 1967 Rubio lute which had metal frets. It is, however, what I consider to be a perfect lute for a guitarist. The stiffness of the string response and the power are much closer to the guitar feel than are the super light lutes being built today. It is a strong instrument with superb projection. It is in excellent condition with no cracks. The polish does need to be "re-freshed" underneath the 1st and 2nd courses. That is the only thing needed. . .a very minor matter.
    Price is $3200.
