4 nice Flamencos for sale

I'm selling these 4 guitars for a friend. I sat down and spent about 10 minutes with each one today, and... I wanted all of them Each is very good for it's price range. 1. Esteve 2GR5F - $900 Solid Spruce top, laminated sycamore back and sides. Rosewood fretboard, machine tuners. Very solid student guitar with plenty of bite and good volume! This guitar is in brand new condition. 2. Esteve 2GR11F - $2600 Spruce top, Indian Rosewood back and sides, ebony fingerboard. All woods solid, machine tuners. Lacquer finish. This is one of the best Negras I have played, comparable to a Pedro de Miguel 27f, but to me it is more flamenco sounding. Just a great flamenco growl but with the added projection of the Rosewood back and sides. It's quite a loud guitar. Brand new condition. 3. Kenny Hill "Triana" - $1795 Cedar top, Cypress back and sides (solid), ebony fingerboard, machine tuners. Finish is French polish. This guitar blew me away! It's an exceptional blanca, with really penetrating trebles and a great barking, deep bass and powerful midrange. I couldn't put the thing down Someone will get a great, what I believe to be professional quality instrument for a really good price here. Near mint condition. 4. Kenny Hill "Reyes" prototype - $3500 Spruce top, Spanish cypress back and sides. Ebony fingerboard, machine tuners, french polished. Made by Kenny himself. This is a really gutsy instrument with extremely deep bass and a wonderful, full, rich, flamenco sound. I say gutsy because (although I haven't measured it), I would say he probably went in the 1.8-2 mm range in the top, and it really payed off. The guitar is tuned somewhere between E and F...crazy. This was Kenny's first attempt at using the Reyes design and I would say he got it just about right. This guitar has been played a bit but has almost no signs of it. Feel free to ask questions or make an offer, you can email me at aculpepper@afewcrows.com
