"FRANCSICO ROBLES FELECCION ART...

Hi,
I have recently seen a Flamenco Negra guitar for sale quite cheaply (second hand). I suspect the seller does not know much about it, as he couldn't even tell me what wood it was made from (it has rosewood back and sides from what I can see).
apparently the label reads:

"FELECCION ARTESANA LUTHIER"

and is signed by "FRANCISCO ROBLES" in "2001".

Apparently the guitar was bought in Spain, some time ago but never used. I think I have heard the name Robles mentioned in connection with luthiery before, but it probably quite a common surname in Spain.

If anyone can tell me anything about this guitar, such as quality and price range, I would be very grateful.

Thanks,

James
