Description

Manuel Velazquez is one of the great masters of Classical guitar building, his guitars have reached great levels of respect of players and builders alike. We have here a classical from 1968 built in German Spruce and Brazilian Rosewood that was restored by Manuel himself in 2010. The famous Velazquez tone is fully present here, it rings like a bell from trebles to the bass. The bass strings are truly amazing on this guitar, pluck the low E and it will fill a room with warm rumbling tones. This guitar is in incredible shape for its age, it plays like brand new. Don't miss out on the chance to own a guitar from one of the masters of our time.

This is certainly a dream guitar! One of the Masters of our time, Velazquez guitars are rare and sought after by concert performers. The bass just billows out of this guitar, it truly is breath taking, while the trebles are nice and crisp with great projection.
