Spectacular Hermanos Conde flamenco guitar. A great sounding Flamenca Negra in the style of Paco de Lucia's Conde!
The history of the famous Hermanos Conde (Conde brothers) begins with Domingo Esteso. He was one of the most important and famous guitar makers of the early 20th century. In 1917, he opened his own workshop at Calle Gravina 7 in Madrid. From 1926, he worked there with his nephew Faustino Conde and later with Mariano and Julio Conde.
Domingo Esteso Lopez died in 1937, but Faustino Conde and his brothers Mariano and Julio continued to run the workshop under the name „Vda y Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso“ and later „Hermanos Conde Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso“.
As demand for guitars increased, another store was opened at Calle Atocha 53, for which Julio Conde was responsible.
This store still exists today, although the store at Calle Gravina 7 has since closed.
This Hermanos Conde guitar was built in 2020 and is in very good condition.
The top is made of the finest spruce and the back and sides of the finest rosewood (exactly the same wood as Paco de Lucia's guitar). The nut width is 52 mm and the scale length is 664 mm.
The neck is perfectly straight and the string action is comfortably low at 2.7 mm E6 and 2.2 mm E1.
The sound of this Hermanos Conde guitar is fantastic. Powerful, hearty and full. At the same time, the guitar is very balanced and clear. It has the power of the great Madrid guitars of the 60s and 70s.
Flamenco at the highest level can be found in this great guitar.
A hard case comes with this beautiful Conde Hermanos.
