Description from the seller
Old guitar from Casa Torres, Valencia, this firm is a seal of quality in itself, and dates back almost a decade to its birth in Granada, passing through Valencia (this specimen) and reaching Barcelona; this firm distributed Valencian guitars to the rest of Spain, working with major workshops such as Vicente Tatay, Hermanos Sanchis (Massanassa), Manuel Raimundo, among others.
Materials:
Cuerpo de sicomoro/arce macizo (lo cual es raro de encontrar)
Solid sycamore/maple body (which is rare to find)
Tapa armónica de pino de abeto alemán.
Resonant top made of German spruce.
Diapasón de ébano
Ebony fingerboard
Ésta guitarra tiene el mérito de que es fabricada en material de sicomoro macizo, lo cual es algo muy complicado de conseguir, ya que normalmente las guitarras con ésta madera no son macizas. Los detalles de construcción son estilizados, sobrios y elegantes.
This guitar has the merit of being made from solid sycamore material, which is something very difficult to obtain, since guitars with this wood are normally not solid. The construction details are streamlined, sober, and elegant.
El estado es bueno en general, presenta algunas marcas de uso típicas por la edad, he tratado de hacerle fotos a todos los desperfectos, el estado es bueno, las fotos forman parte de la descripción, por favor revisar con atención.
Overall condition is good, it shows some wear typical for its age; I have tried to photograph all flaws. The photos are part of the description, please review carefully.
El sonido es flamenco, seco y poderoso, es cómoda de utilizar.
The sound is flamenco, dry and powerful; it is comfortable to play.
