Description
Amalio Burguet 1a 10-string – extremely good sounding guitar in the style of a Jose Ramirez 1a
From a very early age, Amalio Burguet developed an impressive skill in guitar building. His music studies allowed him to become aware of the guitarist’s needs, making him very demanding not only in terms of manufacture, but also in the selection of materials, humidity conditions, storage and building temperatures.
He pays special attention to the selection of woods from different origins and natures, searching for the best of them in any part of the world to build each piece with the greatest quality possible. He also places much care in the delicate and essential drying process of wood, applying all the time and thoroughness required by such precious material.
In short, Amalio Burguet has earned a well-deserved prestige thanks to his carefully built instruments, which are high quality and very affordable for all types of guitarists.
This guitar by Amalio Burguet is a 1a special model – and thus belongs to the highest class of guitars. Built in the style of the famous 10-string Ramirez 1a, this guitar is a concert-ready guitar for professional use.
It has a cedar top and rosewood back and sides. The scale length is 655 mm.
The tone of this guitar has a distinctly warm, mysterious and atmospheric quality that directly evokes deep feelings. It also has a wide dynamic range. Each note is very intense, with the overtones densely packed into a solid and well-defined fundamental. This creates an almost cathedral-like echo effect of the sound, radiating from the body and giving the instrument an enormous presence – both behind the instrument from the playing position and from a distance from the listener’s perspective.
This guitar is from 1993 and has been played a lot. It has many signs of use. A crack on the top has been expertly repaired. The guitar has been thoroughly checked by us and is 100% ready for use. It plays great, with a straight neck and good frets.
The guitar comes with the original case.
