Viuda Y Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso 1940’er Flamenco Gitarre – exceptionally good sounding guitar from the collection of Nikos Tsiachris!
The Spanish luthier Domingo Esteso Lopez was one of the great guitar-makers of the early part of the 20th century that apprenticed with Manuel Ramirez. After Manuel Ramirez died, he opened his own shop on the calle Gravina, where he was joined by his 13 year old nephew Faustino Conde in 1926, as did Mariano Conde in 1929. After his death in the end of 1937, Faustino and his two brothers, Mariano and Julio Conde continued working under the label Vda y Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso. Domingo Esteso guitars are considered monumental and historical, some of them are shown in the great Museums around the world telling the most important part of the history of the spanish guitar.
This is a Viuda y Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso and was built in the style of the guitars of Esteso short after the death of Domingo Esteso in the early 40’s.
Julio Conde once reported, that in the first two years after the death of Esteso and due to the wartime, they primarily finished the Esteso guitars. The shop continued then in 1940 under the label “Viuda y Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso” – the three Conde brothers continued the building tradition of Esteso.
This guitar is one of the rare rosewood models. In this time moste of the guitars were still built with cypress back and sides. It has a beautiful spruce top.
The guitar has been restored wonderfully and true to the original. It is now in great condition and has newer tuners. The neck is straight. The guitar has a great action and plays very well. the scale lengths is 660 mm and nut width 52 mm.
The sound of this guitar is powerful, rich and dark – elegant and majestic. It lives up to its reputation with ease – with powerful and thick trebles, and loose, boomy basses giving the guitar a big personality.
The guitar has developed its own character and is truely alive. It is a lot of fun to playing this guitar and I am convinced that it will absolutely inspire the new owner.
It comes in a soft case with a certificate by Nikos Tsiachris.
