SOLD Ramirez 1a Flamenco Blanca, 1969

This Ramirez 1a Flamenco Blanca is a wonderful rarity, built and signed by Antonio Martínez Ortega, one of Jose Ramirez III’s top craftsmen, during 1969. Over the last couple of years, this fine guitar has been modified to make it more ‘Performance Ready’: the original Rosewood friction tuning pegs have been replaced with geared Wittner tuners, and a Carlos VIPDM pickup set has been installed, with controls tucked under the bass edge of the soundhole.

Daniel Roberts Minstrel Sunburst, 2015 (No Longer Available)

Daniel Roberts Minstrel Sunburst, 2015 (No Longer Available)

The Daniel Roberts Minstrel is a rare sight and is based on a late 40’s Gibson LG-2, mid-sized steel string guitar. Extremely well built and in excellent condition, this example dates to mid-2015. Like a 40’s LG-2, the Daniel Roberts Minstrel uses a Spruce top, here of reclaimed, century old Sitka. When the LG-2 replaced the L-00 in 1942, Sitka Spruce was being used in place of Adirondack, as that wood was marked for war production.
