The guitar is built with a stunning set of Madagascar Rosewood, and sounds like it is just starting to open up, with a sweet, lyrical sound. The basses are very full and the trebles are focused and ring nicely. There is plenty of headroom; you can push this guitar without the sound breaking down. Typical Romero Spanish, singing tone.

There is some wear to the French polish, which I have tried to show in the photos. There are quite a few scratches below the bridge, and a few on the top by the treble strings. Another on the upper bout bass side. The polish is worn thin where the guitar contacts the body at the bass side of the upper bout, and a bit thin in the treble waist. None of the scratches are into the wood, just in the shellac. A polisher can bring this guitar to as-new condition.

There are no repairs, cracks, or other structural damage. The action is very comfortable. This guitar warms up nicely after 5-10 minutes of play, and has an alluring sound that is difficult to describe.

I am offering a 48-hour approval period. If after 48 hours you decide to return the instrument I will refund your purchase price in full. You must pay the return insured shipping cost, and the instrument must be in exactly the condition it was when it left my shop. This guitar is priced to sell-Pepe�s new guitars sell at GSI for $14,000.

Buyer pays insured shipping costs. Please ask questions, and thank you for looking.
