ngiorgio -> FAN FRETTED FLAMENCO (Apr. 9 2010 14:17:16)

I suppose it was just a matter of time for this. A new offerring by Vicente Carrillo.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Vicente-Carrillo-Guitar-Fanned-Fretted-Flamenco-Negra_W0QQitemZ320514749035QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar?hash=item4aa02af26b

Any opinions?



kovachian -> RE: FAN FRETTED FLAMENCO (Apr. 9 2010 15:22:45)

The fanned angles are nowhere nearly as dramatic as on most steel string guitars. I like it, it subtle enough to presumably give the benefits of a fanned scale while not straying too far from the traditional look.

why doesnt it already come in a hard case, I would think any guitar worth 4k should come with a hard case not a gig bag[>:]

Exactly what I thought when i looked at the offer.

Can any luthier confirm there are advantages to the fanned thingy?

If it's better, why isn't every one doing it? Do you need to be a builder for 30 years to level up and do something like this?.[8|]

I found this strange but it may be that the length of the guitar's neck is too long to fit in Carrillo's standard hard case.[:)]
