Description

Manuel Contreras 1980 classical guitar – truly a real masterpiece with a loud, lively and characterful sound!

Born in Madrid in 1926, Manuel Contreras joined the Ramirez workshop as a master luthier in 1959. It was Contreras who made the first José Ramirez guitar Andrés Segovia bought in 1960. After three years with Ramirez, Manuel opened his own guitar workshop in the center of Madrid. He soon earned a reputation as one of the finest and most innovative luthiers in Spain.

His achievement, in this sense, was the design of the model “Double Top”, which Contreras presented in 1974, after a number of experiments in order to improve the tone, volume and projection of the instrument. The great acceptance this model immediately got in the professional guitar world.
In the mid 1980s, Contreras thought up the “Sounding Back Support”, a design that he developed, side by side with his son Manuel Contreras II during some years, up to the moment when they definitively incorporated this construction to their top line guitars. It was thoroughly designed to improve the sound response of the guitar in large halls, chamber ensembles and performances with orchestra.

This Manuel Contreras 1980 classical guitar was built in the world-famous Manuel Contreras workshop. Is a traditionally built classical guitar, with rosewood back and sides and a spruce top. The scale length is 655 mm and the nut width 51 mm. The action is very comfortable with 3.5 mm E and 2.8 mm e at the 12th fret. The saddle of the bridge has enough room for future adjustments.

Soundwise, this guitar impresses with its noble character of sound. Being loud and lively, this guitar is great fun to play and the sound is characteristic of the Madrid style. It is focused, rich and quite expressive.
It is in great condition for its age, showing only some traces of use and play, but no cracks, repairs or modifications. The guitar comes with the original case.

This Manuel Contreras 1980 classical guitar is a great classic Madrid concert guitar at a very reasonable price.
