About Andrés Marvi:
Andrés Marvi is recognized as one of Spain’s best and most sought-after guitar makers. His guitars are cherished by both classical and flamenco guitarists alike. Notable artists such as Aniello Desiderio, Graham Anthony Devine, and Goran Krivokapic have played his classical guitars, while Gerardo Núñez’s use of a Marvi guitar in a well-known instructional video marked a significant international breakthrough for the brand. Today, luminaries like Dani de Morón, Antonio Rey, Salvador Gutierrez, Pepe Justicia, and Raphael Riqueni trust their artistry to Marvi instruments, with Vicente Amigo also expressing interest.
Sound and Playability:
Marvi guitars are distinguished by their exceptional wood selection, flawless craftsmanship, quick response, and immense volume. They produce powerful, deep bass and singing highs with abundant volume, showcasing a vast harmonic diversity and excellent balance across the fretboard. The superb playability is achieved through one of the slimmest, finest necks available, complemented by the raised fingerboard that facilitates play in higher positions. The sturdy construction ensures that the neck extends beneath the entire fretboard to the soundhole, eliminating issues such as high action or warped necks that can occasionally affect even renowned guitar makers.
Condition:
This particular Marvi is a well-maintained instrument in near mint condition, showing only minor signs of use. A finish blemish has been repaired by Marvi during the ownership of Raphael Riqueni – it is invisible.
The combination of spruce and rosewood delivers a powerful, robust, and brilliant sound, blending the attack and sharpness typical of flamenco guitars while allowing exploration into classical and other musical styles. It stands as a premier performance tool for stages and concerts.
This Andrés Marvi 2021 Negra Flamenco Guitar is a rare gem, and while Marvi occasionally offers spruce/cypress models through select dealers, finding a Negra like this is a rare opportunity.
