The Navarro on eBay with the Conde headstock and Conde bracing pattern I'm pretty sure is the guitar I initially ordered. I had ordered pegs but there was a mix up and they did mechanical tuners, which I didn't want. So, they built a new guitar for me. The guitar I got, arrived a couple days ago, has the Conde headstock and Conde bracing and is otherwise like the Navarro student model, although I think it is a little lighter than Navarro's usual student model. It is not a Conde copy, just a couple things similar. But it was mainly built by Francisco's son, Marlan Navarro, and he signed the label. The guitar lis very light, like I like, and the neck depth is thinner, which I also like. Pegs work perfectly and fretboard and frets very well done. Over the years, I've owned about 12 flamenco guitars, including a 1962 Ramirez, a Shelton-Farretta, and a Santos Hernandez. For the price range on the Navarro, it can't be beat. It is the best hand-made flamenco in that price range (less than $1000). Yes, the Santos Hernandez is better but that's a different price range... The Conde-Navarro one on eBay is back up, is posted. Ron Hudson is great to work with and, if you don't like the guitar(s), you can always return it. Honorable policy. .... Regards
