Description
This guitar is a rare find … it was built by Ricardo Sanchis Nacher (1881-1960) and is historically very interesting as it is the same type of guitar Agustin Barrios bought from Ricardo Sanchis Nacher.
Ricardo Sanchis Nacher is the founder of Sanchis guitars and the grandfather of Ricardo Sanchis Carpio.
The shop of Ricardo Sanchis in Valencia was founded by Ricardo Sanchis Nacher in 1915. He has worked for guitar makers in Valencia for sometime, went to Madrid where he was befriended by Manuel Ramirez and Domingo Esteso. To perfect his craft, he remained in Madrid working for Domingo Esteso (the founder of todays Hermanos Conde guitars) for three years.
As a result, the Sanchis family has had close relationships with Esteso, and with his heirs, the Hermanos Conde, ever since.
The guitar was built around 1940. It has a spruce top and the back and sides are made of rosewood. Its a smaller guitar with a scale length of 615 mm and a nut width of 51 mm.
It is a pleasantly light guitar, finely built with a nicely decorated rosette, a straigt forward design and a smooth and fluid headstock shape.
The sound of this instrument is captivating with its warm and characterful tone – the trebles sound clear and brilliant. The basses are powerful and sound dark and warm.
The guitar unfolds an enormous volume and inspires with an incredible lightness.
The guitar is comfortable for both hands and adjusted with a low action. It has a straight neck and good frets.
This guitar has been restored and received some repairs as well as a refinish with French polish.
