Description
Enrique Sanfeliu 1939 (Junior) – a very powerful classical guitar with an impressive tone.
Enrique Sanfeliu was born in 1882 in Valencia, Spain and as a child built small “toy” guitars for his friends – tue sign of a promising future as a guitar maker.
After hearing Tarrega play a concert in Valencia, he decided to devote his life to the guitar – not just as a player, but also as a maker. He later moved to Valencia where he worked in the workshop of Juan Estruch and befriended Enrique Garcia, who shared his knowledge of lutherie with Sanfeliu. He then tought his son and they both ran the famous workshop in Barcelona.
The Sanfeliu instruments show the unmistakable influence of the later guitars of Enrique Garcia, as well as the instruments of his great protege – Francisco Simplicio.
This rare classical guitar has a beautiful, old-world sound. Extremely powerful with a biting, raspy response to it. It’s a feather-light instrument in the same category of sound and feel as guitars from Santos, Esteso, Barbero.
80+ years of respectful and regular playing on this guitar – one can imagine that this creates a dream instrument.
It is also in a nice condition for its age and completely original.
The playability is absolutely fantastic. It has a low action and plays fine up and down the neck. It has a spruce top and rosewood back and sides.
The nut width is 51 mm and the scale length 650 mm.
This is a very fine, rare, collectible and playable instrument by one of the great Barcelona masters of the twentieth century.
It comes with a newer guitar case.
