| We have eagerly been anticipating
the arrival of the new Ramirez "Model SP" classical guitars.
Yesterday we received fine examples of this new concert guitar offering,
directly from Amalia Ramirez in Spain. These fine guitars display
all of the painstaking attention to detail that have made the Ramirez name
famous world wide.
The SP has been created and
designed by Amalia Ramírez in response to demand for an intermediate
model between the estudio and professional instruments both in terms of
quality and price.
Amalia Ramirez was born in Madrid,
in October 1955. In 1976, she joined the workshop where she learned how
to make guitars. Then she left for few years returning in 1988 to help
her brother Jose Ramírez IV in restructuring and management, and
bringing a new look to the family business. The work was distributed between
both, José Enrique being devoted mainly to the workshop whilst Amalia
applied herself to the commercial aspects, although she also built guitars
after establishing the workshop again in General Margallo.
The new SP model features
all solid Indian rosewood back & sides, premium Western Red cedar
or European spruce top, Spanish cedar neck, ebony fingerboard, intricate
custom rosette mosaic and precision gold plated tuners.
