Hello from Florida

Referred by gentleman from DelCamp classical forum. All around guitarist for about 50+ years - turn 70 this year and still working at it. Interested in finding a flamenco negra, especially Pavan (Had a TP30 and it was great). Not a flamenco player although I do it enjoy it some. I play Chet Atkins/John Knowles/Jerry Reed and some Celtic as well as theater pit orchestra when I can get the chance. I'm in the the process of liquidating some surplus equipment to raise $$$ fro new guitar. I turn 70 this year so this will probably be my last major guitar purchase purchase and I want to get it right. I prefer the look of the negra but presently play a Cordoba GK Studio (very nice for the $$$). Always happy to hear suggestion son on other brands/possibilities.

Hi Nick! I live in Bradenton - west coast - just north of Sarasota. Used to own a music store here in the 70's and 80's until I got tired of not getting a paycheck! I saw the negra for sale and I'd jump on it but I've got a pedal steel I have to sell to rise the $$$. Any other brands I should look at before I buy a Pavan? I just sort of gravitated to him because of the great luck I had with one of his TP30 classicals.

Skip,

I owned a guitar shop in the NYC metro area in the '70's. In Tarpon Springs for 10 years. we should chat privately. Send me a PM. I also have a negra which is for sale.
