Best US Flamenco Guitar distributer 
Outside of big cities in the US finding a Flamenco guitar seller is somewhat difficult what do you guys think are some of the better websites out there for good quality and price?

Personally, I think Guitarsalon.com and classicalguitarshop.com are pretty good

Djreisat,

If you are in the States, give Tom Nuñez a ring at ..

www.lafalseta.com

I'm in the UK, so have never dealt with him personally, but he's been on this Forum and Flamenco-Teacher for over 5 years and I've heard nothing but praise for his expertise and personal service to meet a particular budget and requirements.

He is (as well as a guitar dealer) a great guitar enthusiast and is into Flamenco guitar construction as a hobby.

For the unlimited and fat wallet, Rudy or "El Kabong"(of the Frozen Tundra) has a number of select and delicious guitars which he trades from time to time.

Again, no complaints I've ever heard of in all my years here.

cheers,

Ron

I bought two guitars from Tom at LaFalseta and had no troubles either time.
A good friend has bought guitars from guitarsalon.com and had similar
experience (troublefree).

Regards,
Jeff

It is all about Tom Nunez and LaFalseta. Great integrity, knowledge and patience.

La Falseta sounds good but I have never dealt with Tom. I have been to the house and met the guy who runs zavaleta's, http://www.zavaletas-guitarras.com/ He sells fairly high end (expensive) guitars and only sells nylon to my knowledge. He has a good selection of very good flamenco guitars for sale as well as classical. He also has a collection of amazing guitars that aren't listed for sale but you can see them on his website. He is a very nice guy and I wouldn't hesitate to buy a guitar from him if I decided I wanted one of the ones he has.

99% of it really comes down to who happens to have the guitar you want. Of
the named dealers I think they will all treat you well. It's a lot easier to buy a
guitar from somebody who has the guitar you want, than to buy from
somebody who does not.

Hey Jeff, sounds like an N number. Spell my user name backwards to find my other hobby. :-)
