The now- discontinued Ramirez Fl1A Flamenco guitar is one of the standards for concert quality Flamenco instruments.

Ebony is used for the fingerboard and Indian Rosewood for the bridge, and the nut and saddle are bone. The model name, FL1A, expands to ‘Flamenco’, Grade 1, and the A refers to the material for the top – Abeto, meaning ‘Fir’ but specifically Spruce as distinct from the Red Cedar pioneered by Jose Ramirez III.
