Jose Ramirez 1E Classical

I'm looking to buy buy a 2006 Jose Ramirez 1e. Does anyone know the proper specs for this guitar. And is it a good buy for $650 US.

i assume the specs you want are width of nut = 52mm; scale length = 650mm; top = solid cedar; sides and back = laminated rosewood; fretboard = ebony. from my experience with the factory ramirez guitars the body size is about the same as most other classical guitars. $650 with a case is probably a good price for that guitar albeit some of the cost is the name factor. there is a lot of variability with factory guitars so if you like the 1e you going after then you should be ok.

Assuming there are no condition problems, it's a good guitar and a good price.
