Description
A nice guitar from the shop of Pedro Maldonado – a fine instrument with a great sound!
Pedro Maldonado was born in Loja (Granada) in 1929 in Las Parras Street.
His father was a furniture maker and Pedro began helping his father in the carpentry shop when he was a teenager.
Very soon Pedro Maldonado had interest in guitar building. His father took him to Granada in order to develop this art with the help of some guitar makers from the famous “Escuela Granadina”. He learned and worked with Manuel de la Chica, Eduardo Ferrer and Antonio Robles.
It was in 1959 when Pedro Maldonado opened his own workshop.
Since Pedro Maldonado was always a good worker, he started to make excellent instruments right away. It was then that he started receiving orders from “Casa Damas” in Sevilla, a flamenco store with a great reputation. Very fast his reputation grew and he had to work 14 hours daily in order to make all the orders he had from famous musicians, Spanish guitarists and stores from different parts of the world: United States , Japan , Germany , Great Britain , Australia.
This guitar is a guitar from Pedro Maldonado’s shop and represents one of those “Estudio guitars” – made according to the construction plans of Maldonado by some other makers.
The top is made of fine spruce, the back and sides are of cypress. it has a 650 mm scale and 52 mm nut width.
The sound of this Pedro Maldonado is really nice. The basses are deep and strumming, and the trebles, bright and crystal clear. It has a nice sustained sound and a good balance between basses and trebles. A very nice timbre that sublimely combines power and volume with quality and perfect pitch.
This guitar is perfectly adjuasted with a streight neck and a low action. It plays with great ease.
The condition of this guitar is very good, with just some light wear from play and use.
It comes with a hard foam guitar case.
