The characteristic Ramírez neck profile ensures excellent playability, while the detailed woodwork, rosette, and bindings reflect the workshop’s dedication to artistry.
This 1984 Ramírez 1a “Da Cámara” is in excellent condition with only minor playing wear, preserving its rich tonal character and structural integrity. It comes with a newer hard case for protection and storage. It has the typical Ramirez scale lengths of 664 mm and 54 mm nut width. It plays great with low action ( 3.8 mm E and 3.0 mm e) and straight neck.
A true masterpiece of a classical guitar from one of Spain’s most prestigious workshops—ideal for professionals and collectors seeking an instrument of the highest caliber.
