1999 Bernal Sueno Blanca £650 - SOLD

1999 Bernal Sueno. Cedar top, cyprus body with three-part back, ebony fingerboard. Scale length is 660mm, nut width is 52mm, bridge string spacing is 58mm. It's in immaculate condition, and has a fast, low action and punchy attack. I have upgraded the tuners to Gotohs (and still have the plasticy originals if you want them for some reason). £650 For anyone not familiar with it, the Sueno was one of Bernal's most popular models but is no longer produced due to the challenges of building this style of three-piece back within this price range apparently.

There has been some discussion on here recently about the unpredictability of guitars in this price range so I am very happy for someone to try out the guitar for 7 days and then return it to me if not happy with it (providing the condition is unchanged, etc).

As to why I'm selling? Well this is a very nice sounding guitar which is forgiving enough not to show up technique flaws too brutally when played live. Whilst many imperfections remain in my playing, I am now using a less tolerant concert blanca live and apparently getting away with it, so have decided to sell this guitar on to someone who will equally appreciate its virtues - a decision which which I'm hoping will not bite me in the ass!

I'm based in Dorking in the UK, which is about an hour south of London on the train.
