2011 Jose Ramirez Del Vino
Classical Guitar.
This is a numbered Limited Edition classical guitar. It was made in the Jose Ramirez workshop at Calle de la Paz No 8, Madrid. These guitars were a special project created by Amalia Ramirez.
This Ramirez guitar achieves Amalia's goal of recreating the true Spanish tone of the guitars built by her Great-Grandfather Jose Ramirez the First. This is a medium bodied guitar and as such has excellent sustain on the bass notes. Treble notes are warm and rich. Guitars from the early 20th century were instruments played in cafes with dancers. They had to be able to play any style of music, everything from folk ballads to flamenco. This guitar was recreated by Amalia to exactly capture that ability, and it does.
The Del Vino differs from similar body shape limited edition guitars in choice of woods. This instrument uses Padauk Rosewood for the back and sides, with a center stripe of Oak in the back, showing off the original wine barrel inspiration for the guitar.
The overall condition of the guitar is excellent. There are no cracks of any kind in this guitar. There are a few dings in the finish which is completely original, with no touch ups. The entire guitar was carefully inspected, and polished to remove minor finish scratches.
This hand-crafted guitar was built using solid Padauk Rosewood for the back and sides, a Cedar neck and a solid Cedar top. The outer binding and headstock cap are made using fine quality rosewood. The guitar has an intricate Grape and Vine rosette used on the Del Vino model only, with a matching design on the top of the bridge.
Scale length on this guitar is 650 millimeters. the nut width measures 51 millimeters. The ebony fretboard is in very good condition. The guitar has just been refretted for superb intonation and ease of play. Action on the 12th fret low E string is 3.4 millimeters and the 12th fret high E string measures 2.6 millimeters.
The excellent condition original label is stamped and notes that this is guitar number 94 of the series. This instrument has the original high ratio gold Gotoh tuning keys in good condition.
The guitar will be carefully packed and shipped in its excellent condition Jose Ramirez hardshell case inside a sturdy box.
