Description
Pedro de Miguel flamenco guitar in Jose Ramirez style – this guitar is pure magic, it combines excellent craftsmanship, quality materials, years of experience and love for music to an instrument of exceptional quality!
Who is behind the name Pedro de Miguel, is often asked. The answer is simple: two great guitar makers: Pedro Pérez (1958-2008) and Miguel Ángel Rodríguez (1960 – ), who worked for Ramirez before starting their own business.
At the age of fourteen, they both started working in José Ramírez’s workshop, where they first learned from the other guitar makers and later became Ramírez’s master guitar makers under the famous José Ramirez III.
After a few years, they opened their own workshop at 13 Amor de Dios Street in Madrid, where the “Pedro de Miguel” brand was born. Many of the famous Ramirez guitar makers did the same … Paulino Bernabe, Manuel Contreras, Felix Manzanero, Miguel Malo, Arturo Sanzano …
Rafael Riqueni, Gerardo Núñez, Pepe Habichuela or Jerónimo Maya are some of the famous guitarists who have come to their workshop to acquire one of these works of art.
This guitar has the very big flamenco sound. The sound is initially voluminous, but in addition to the loud tone, it also offers tremendous warmth. The basses are absolutely fantastic and come straight through with a pleasant growl. The highs are clear and differentiated. The guitar unfolds the most beautiful timbres in every single note and inspires in all areas.
We have made the experience that a cedar/cypress construction always has a special flair and this one is no exception – it has exactly this incomparable magic and character!
It plays very easily, with a low action, a straight neck, and a perfect setup.
The top is cedar and the back and sides are cypress. The scale length is 662 mm and the nut width is 52 mm.
If the guitar could talk, it would certainly tell about the many evenings spent in the tablaos and on the stages of Spain. This guitar has definitely been played a lot.
Besides the numerous dings and dongs, it has received new frets and the back of the neck has been refinished.
The neck is straight and the string action is low. It is ready for the next stage. It has no cracks or repairs!
The guitar comes with a matching case.
