1972 Jose Oribe Concert Brazilian/Redwood
Jose Oribe is a fine American builder who began his lutherie career in 1962. Known for his attention to detail and efficiency of production, Jose Oribe’s guitars feature superb construction and remarkable tone. This ’72 Concert is big and robust sounding, with both excellent volume and projection. The bass, mid, and treble frequencies are wonderfully balanced and musical thanks to the Brazilian Rosewood back and sides and Cedar top. This is an extremely fine classical guitar, one that we are proud to host here in our store. Contact us for more details if interested!

Their home, in a private community with lakes and trees, is both a home and a workplace, for it is here that the world famous Oribe guitars are created.Like the Oribe guitars, their home, shop and life-style reflect a balance of beauty and function.A childhood plagued with illness and hospitalization created in Jose Oribe the determination to succeed. Realizing he could not excel at traditional sports, he turned his attention to being a master pool player and he succeeded. Later, as a young machinist, he discovered the classical guitar. Becoming proficient as a guitarist, he turned his attention to creating a finer instrument. He combined his technical knowledge of tools and tolerances with determination, self-discipline and sensitivity to produce instruments used worldwide.
