Here we have a 1979 Ramirez Flamenco1a in Cypress back and sides and a Cedar top. This is the quintessential Flamenco guitar made from the classic combination of Cedar and Cypress, the tone is quick, airy and loud, just as a Flamenco guitar should be. Lightness of build is very important for a Flamenco style guitar, this Ramirez is as light as a feather on a warm breeze, you almost have to tie it to your lap! Flamencos have to respond ultra quick with a fairly short decay time in order to sound un-muddied with the deluge of notes being played, the Ramirez does that perfectly. For its age, this guitar is in incredible shape, and the soundboard has aged and opened up wonderfully.

Add to Compare1991 Ramirez 1a La de Camara Brazilian/Red Cedar
Ramirez guitars are known throughout the world, and have been revered by generations of guitarists. This particular guitar is the Ramirez 1a Camara or De Camera model, previously owned by Carlos Barbosa Lima. This designation indicates that it has an internal fan which Jose Ramirez designed to eliminate wolf tones in the guitar. It really works and this is one of the finest 1A’s we’ve come across. With solid bass and thick mid-range, the voice of this guitar is authoritative but never brash. It is strong, but always refined. A very fine musical instrument indeed!
From the Ramirez website – We call De Camara an interior fan, also designed by Ramirez, glued in the middle of the sides. It takes away the wolf notes, and it helps the sound to be clear, where the notes are perfectly separated between them.

From the time when Jose Ramirez I installed his workshop in Concepcion Jeronima no. 2 at the end of the ninteeenth century, the shop has sold Ramirez guitars through four generations.Jose Ramirez III changed the situation when, due to the increasing demand for guitars at the beginning of the 1960s, he moved his workshop to General Margallo street. There he taught new artisans, leaving the establishment in Concepcion Jeronima solely as shop open to the public.At the beginning of the seventies he opened a larger shop in front of the old, in the number 5 of Concepcion Jeronima. The little shop remained closed until the end of the eighties, when Jose Ramirez IV and his sister Amalia decided to restore and reopen it.In 1995 they were obliged to abandon the venerable establishment due to the impossibility of renewing the lease. They bought a new space in the same area where, in addition to acquiring a guitar, one can view part of the Ramirez family’s guitar collection, including examples not only made by the Ramirez dynasty, but also, amongst others, Antonio de Torres, Santos Hermandez, Dionisio Guerra, Francisco Simplicio, and Manuel Munoa.
