José Ramírez Flamenco Handcrafted Guitar

The Flamenco Rosewood Handcrafted Guitar is the end result of years of study, refinement, updates, and craft. José Ramírez I created the "Guitarra de Tablao" at the end of the 19th century and revolutionized the world of flamenco guitar. His disciple and younger brother Manuel Ramírez developed this, the Flamenco Rosewood, by building upon the craft of José Ramírez I to achieve a flamenco guitar with a wide sonority and characteristic sound. The Flamenco Rosewood has a brilliant, hoarse tone with incredible sustain and color that is still the reference for modern flamenco guitar.

The 656mm scale length ebony fingerboard sits atop a cedar neck. The body is constructed with a solid spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides that make this a beautiful guitar to look at, and to listen to. The Indian rosewood adds a depth and warmth to the sound, as well as a more powerful bass than the Flamenco Cypress model made with solid cypress sides and back. As with all our first-class guitars, the Flamenco Rosewood is handmade in our workshop using woods that have been naturally seasoned and dried for at least 20 years. This aging process increases the stability and enriches the sound quality of the instrument.

This made-to-order guitar also includes unique options such as peghead imitation wood pegs instead of the standard Aparicio mechanical tuners, a thinner-profiled neck, and more. The price includes a handmade Manzano guitar case.
