This is a great quality student level Flamenco Guitar with the tone and feel to satisfy the pickiest of ears in the absence of a $2500 guitar. Handbuilt in Spain with a solid German Spruce top and laminated Sycamore back and sides, this guitar has the percussive drive and dry clarity that a flamenco player needs. With a great feeling body of traditional dimensions (650mm scale length, 52mm nut width), and classic looking tradtional ornamentation (nice rosette, rosewood binding), this is a perfect guitar for the money. So if you've got delusions of being the next Sabicas or Paco, this would be a good place to start that journey (then you'll need to practice for a few decades).
