Jose Ramirez 1a 1978 a great guitar and a real piece of guitar history - it has the unique Ramirez sound!
A rarity from the Ramirez store. For more than half a century, Ramirez has been building instruments on which countless professionals have played, from Sting to Segovia, Chet Atkins to Sabicas and Lee Ritenour to Christopher Parkening.
José Ramirez's classical guitars from the 1960s and early 1970s are world-famous. During these years, guitar history was written in the Ramirez store and the modern classical guitar was developed in its current form.
It is very easy to play, has a beautiful neck and a good string action. The scale length is 664 mm and the nut width is 54 mm. It has a cedar top and rosewood back and sides.
This great guitar has the richness, robustness and depth of sound that Ramirez is known for in its best instruments. The tone is rich yet clear and has the essential warm, mysterious and atmospheric quality. The sound consists of controlled and balanced layers of overtones that build on the crystal clear fundamental. It has an almost cathedral-like presence that gives it plenty of power for any concert hall - it has an almost thunderous presence and is a true „concert grand“ of a guitar.
These instruments are among the most coveted by collectors, but they have been and continue to be played by top concert artists worldwide. This Ramirez guitar is a highly desirable specimen both for its sound and its collectability.
The guitar is in very good condition for its age - only the usual signs of play and use are visible. The bridge has been professionally converted to a 12-hole bridge, which gives the guitar a certain extra punch. It comes with a good case.
An excellent example of a fine Ramirez for collectors or concert players.
