This wonderful historical guitar has had a new bridge built to same specification.

Slight split in back at seem area which is fairly hidden as it is so close to the seem.

Slight parting of the seem on top at but to bridge (humidity issue from the past I believe)

Some shrinkage to fret board.

She is in need of some work, but what I can say for sure is that she has a beautiful tone and projection. Just stunning!

Fantastic guitar from the house of Santos Hernandez during the Marcelo Barbero era.

Like most study guitars of that time, it is possible that this guitar was made either in house or by other constructor under specification from Marcelo Barbero and examined in shop prior to label being placed inside.

A real collectors study guitar which is playable - but in need of work.
