ORIGINAL: Ricardo but if you played a different instrument, say flute in school, even back in say 1995, those things were already 10K for an average one. A $4000 Conde was a decent price for a fantastic guitar back then when I first got one. Lets not even get My friend plays the flute and back in 2002 he bought one which he say is medium to good and it cost him AU15000. And he said it's far from top of the range. I just look at him thinking whether I should kidnap him. But talking about testing the different condes.. It's easy for a good player like yourself to test it.. how do beginners/intermediate people test it? SO hard.. so I think smaller builders would be a better bet, smaller builders would strive to give out better guitars to increase their reputation etc. alright alright, I'll be painful honest cuz i had a couple vinos. When folks say an expensive top name guitar is mediocre or bad, we guys who play just kind of scratch our heads wtf, fool can't play so doesn't know how good it is. cuz a good player can make a cheap chinese guitar sound nice great, but would we buy it? well if that's all we can afford sure, and in the end it don't matter. we pay the extra thousands for those details we know are so much nicer. If the 50k guitar was so much better, yes we simply have to find a way, get a loan to get the thing. But fortunately that is not the case. So i repeat , there is hype because ONE GUYS LEMON IS ANOTHER GUYS GOLD when it comes to guitars. So don't worry that you can't play good. If the guitar has a good rep and you like it, it is good.

ok thank you all for the explication of lemon. in french lemon is a fruit(citron) and only that. 4000 for a good used conde is not expensive. i have mine since 1 week and i tried in 4 different room of baile course,and it's very powerfull and well balanced. And watch the media luna in the mirror is so cool . The student dont understand nothing about guitar,yet they said wahouu great sound ,without know the price or the label of the guitar. holyevil, i think a beginner,dont need a guitar like thaht ,because he can't outputting the sound.there guitar for players who have a little experience. I remember the first time i started flamenco,one day my first teacher ,give me a good conde negra,and a good ramirez,for taste,and i have not heard the difference with my 300$ guitar.
