Ramirez SPR Classical guitar

Jose Ramirez 140 Years Spruce Classical Guitar

Some guitars are chosen for their materials; others for the history behind their name. With Jose Ramirez, the two belong together. More than 140 years of Spanish guitar making and five generations of a family tradition provide the background to an instrument made for the music you want to play today.

Spruce brings a clear, direct and bright tonal character. The solid top is paired with solid Indian rosewood back and sides. It is a combination for players looking for an instrument with its own identity, whether working patiently through a demanding piece or returning to a favourite melody simply for the pleasure of playing.

The full classical body preserves the familiar outline of the Spanish guitar. It invites advanced students and committed players to spend time with their sound: shaping a phrase, balancing melody and accompaniment, and developing an interpretation that feels their own.

An ebony fingerboard and 650 mm scale are complemented by a cedar neck, Indian rosewood bridge and polyurethane finish. Designed by Ramirez and made in Spain, the guitar is checked and adjusted at the Ramirez workshop before distribution.

For amplified playing, choose from the electronics options listed on this page; the version without electronics keeps the instrument purely acoustic. A Ramirez to accompany serious practice, new musical ideas and the everyday pleasure of getting to know a guitar. Guitar case included.

The Prudencio Saez 6-PS formerly model 132 is a professional classical guitar made from solid woods and with exquisite craftsmanship. The model 6-PS is one of the professional models from Prudencio Saez that has a particularly good price-quality ratio. Features a lattice bracing system which is especially handy for performing musicians due to the increase in volume and sustain this system affords. Special attention has also been paid to the action of the guitar with the advanced student and the performer in mind. The sound is full of details, very nuanced and with plenty of volume and balance. The solid Madagascar rosewood back and sides give the guitar great projection and the well-crafted solid top of cedar or spruce transmits a polished and professional sound. A highly recommendable instrument for professional guitarists. Free Guitar case included.

The Alhambra Premier Pro Madagascar guitar is a classical guitar with a powerful and dynamic sound, full of nuances. An instrument that is comfortable to play and totally dependable - a guitarist with an Alhambra Premier Pro Madagascar in his or her hands will have complete peace of mind: you can push the guitar to the limit and still achieve a clean and flawless sound. The investment that the master luthiers at Alhambra Guitars have made over the last few years in research and development has come to fruition in this sublime signature model. As well as its excellent quality-price ratio, it is a beauty of an instrument, with a streak of colour from heel to bottom. Only select woods have been used, including exquisite Madagascar rosewood for the back and sides, which add to the character and distinction of this guitar.

In addition to the solid Madagascar back and sides, the guitar boasts a high-quality cedar top, and Schaller Grand Tune Classic Hauser machine heads. Bone has been used for the saddle and nut because of this material’s excellent ability to transmit sound.

For the finish of the Alhambra Premier Pro Madagascar, nitrocellulose lacquer varnish has been applied to the top. This varnish offers greater flexibility and a greater capacity of vibration to the guitar, which contributes directly to the resonance of this instrument. This model also incorporates a twelve-hole bridge for easier installation of the strings and an innovative bracing design called Chinese house. Case included. Optional: Alhambra 9650 and 9270 ICONIC.
