Description
Hermanos Conde 1966 “Faustino Conde” – Flamenca Blanca from the late 60’s – the best of what you can get from Hermanos Conde!
Hermanos Conde are not simply guitar builders like others, no, they have probably written flamenco history like no one else. The three brothers Faustino, Julio and Mariano started to build guitars for Domingo Esteso. He was the great master, head and trainer in their early years.
After the death of Esteso the three brothers started little by little to built instruments in their own style. First with the label Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso, but in the beginning of the 60s, it was not easy to make a living by selling flamenco guitars.
When the young Paco de Lucia finally became aware of Conde at the end of the 60s beginning of the 70s – he had previously played Ramirez – they had created their own type of guitar, with incredibly strong basses and singing trebles – simply brilliant flamenco guitars.
Paco was seen from then on almost exclusively with Conde, which naturally found its imitators due to the popularity of Paco. In the old TV recordings of the 70s there is almost no young guitarist who didn’t play Conde.
Faustino Conde, who is considered to be in charge of the construction of the old Condes, has written flamenco history.
This legend of the Condes has remained to this day.
This guitar was made with the best materials, the finest craftsmanship (by the master Faustino Conde) and the most beautiful features – it is a guitar that corresponds to the guitars Paco de Lucia played.
The top is made of fine spruce. Back and sides are made of best cypress wood. The scale lenght is 670 mm and the nut width 52 mm.
It has a spectacular flamenco sound and reacts great, with a fast attack and a great old world flamenco tone.
It has beautiful basses and is nevertheless a very balanced instrument. The tone is a perfect blend of beauty and true flamenco aggressiveness. Its a guitar full of character. If massaged by the player, it sings with a sweet voice that is warm and full, but if pushed, even just a little – it awakens with a powerful bark that only the best flamenco guitars can produce.
A beautiful guitar – simply guaranteed to fall in love with!!
This Faustino Conde is well adjusted and it gives the feeling that the guitar plays by itself. Perfect action, straight neck (2.9 mm E and 2.1 mm e at the 12th fret).
The condition is absolutely great, the guitar has no cracks or repairs and shows only the normal wear from playand use. It has mechanical tuning pegs from Peghed.
It comes with the original hard case.
