Josef Rauscher - - Classical guitar - Germany - 1900

Romantic guitar Josef Rauscher, c. 1900, Germany, spruce top, sycamore back and sides, straight ebony fingerboard, restored and impeccable. The small defect observed on one of the ribs has been repaired and, when touched, it blends perfectly with the rim; it is purely cosmetic. Extraordinary, round, resonant tone. It comes with the original wooden case (in itself quite valuable).
