Did't you know that if you play Condes with sunglasses, they turn into an Andalucian guitar??

That Andalusian Guitar looks awful..

I don't like the rosette, color or the headstock..

I know looks aren't important in a guitar, but, well, YUCK, I'll pass and stick to my cheap Yamaha

Ruben Díaz plays these guitars in all of his videos for years. So he´s a big fan of Andalusian Guitars.

Here he presents a new concept of those guitars, a "Deep Blanca" with maple body and states: "This guitar has all a blanca has, but 3x more". I´ve added a comment that I don´t agree at all. Maybe in comparison to his available guitars this could be the fact. There are good maple flamencas available but they sound more brave to the cypress blancas.

I thought he made them all by himself alone entirely by hand in his own workshop....

[or should that be

?]

On a side note, I heard that a legal action has been undertaken against Ruben in Spain. I do not know any details, but it seems that it is linked to his advertising of Andalusian guitars there. Has anyone here heard anything in that effect?!

Agreed. My yamaha 172 sf even has a lot more snarl to it. Chords don't sound great, but individual notes have that moorish bite, especially during pulgar. Could be the LaBella 820's though
