  • SALE Los Guitarerros De Mallorca Signed José Ferrer Historic Spanish Guitar

    £1,750.00Price

    From the historic Los Guitarreros De Mallorca guitar factory in Spain. This is a valuable early model

    Signed and numbered by José  Ferrer (Granada, b. 1926-d. 1976) 

    José Ferrer, the son of Eduardo Ferrer, was born in Granada in 1926. From the time he was a child, he was surrounded by guitar making and worked  in his father’s workshop. His son Pepe later continued to produce guitars from Guitarrera De Mallorca with a different label inside.


     

    The serial number I believe puts this guitar in the 1960's

     

    Once I started playing this I fell in love with it's authentic tone and minimalist rustic charm.

    This guitar still plays like a dream and sounds classic, romantic, natural and dynamic. Sweet from a whisper to a loud flamenco strum.

     

    It is in excellent condition save for a repaired grain split in the least harmful place on the side and facing down about 9 inches, You can see in the photos that it has gone back together along the grain.  This was professionally repaired and is structurally very strong and does not affect the tone or playability obviously. There are also some scratches on the back of the head from being hung on a hook.

    All the important areas of the guitar such as neck top and back are in excellent condition. The guitar has a loved patina with small playing marks and checks that only add to the beauty.

    This is an excellent performance instrument.

     

    The action is 3.1 mm at the 12th fret so the intonation is lovely all over the neck.

    The bone nut is cut to perfection and is easy on the fingers being nice and close to the fret.

    This guitar is suitable for flamenco styles.

    The neck is fat with a flat back so is easy on the thumb.

     

    These guitars are rare and have fetched up to £5,000 at auction.

     

    Comes with a hard case
