What a powerhouse. This Jose Ruiz Pedregosa guitar is a big guitar with a bold voice. Pedregosa studied with Jeronimo Pena Fernandez and builds wonderful, world-class instruments that are powerful and beautiful. This Concert guitar from 2004 has a large body reaching 15 1/4" at the lower bout and a 660 scale length for a robust voice capable of filling any hall. The notes are rich, warm and full sounding. There are many fine details on this guitar as well. The Headstock and Bridge are fully carved as is the fingerboard terminus. There are also Ebony inlays in the back of the neck and back of the headstock. The sort of elegant details you find on very few guitars.

Player Reviews:
"Jeronimo Pena Fernandez is one of my favorite Spanish makers and Jose Ruiz Pedregosa's instruments are a true testament to his teachings. This Pedregosa is a stunning guitar with ornate carvings on the headstock, bridge, fingerboard terminus and rear of the neck and headstock as well. But the true beauty is in the tone. This is a large body guitar full of energy but also beauty and sentiment. With it's full, lush voice backed by a powerful body, it allows the player a range of expression found in few instruments.
