minordjango -> new guitar info (Sep. 26 2010 2:44:37)

hi all ,
i just got a Antonio lorca classical guitar for 150 pounds.

its a classical yet so Hispanic i love it !!!

doen anyone know the woods used and why it seems a bargain ?

i think fretboard mahogany , and Indian rosewood for sides , its lovely

i dont know much about Antonio anyone have some stories?




minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 26 2010 2:47:35)

and how can i put tap plates on this thing ??? any ideas for an impractical twit like me ?

the lorca is really decent i feel , anyone else have one ?




minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 26 2010 2:59:59)

modelo 18




at_leo_87 -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 26 2010 3:32:00)

how come you won't just buy a real flamenco? or do you have one already? i vaguely remember something about a ramirez...

putting on a tap plate is a pretty simple procedure.

Hee MD,
you've got a collection of guitars all around the world, why not collect them again, keep the one you like and sell the others and buy another great flamenco guitar.

The only thing I could think of if spend 150, its bagger, somethings wrong with it, or you are extremely lucky.

Or just sell everything you dont need, and get some guitar! You are complaining way too long now that your guitar needs to be fixed etc.
Action time amigo!

minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 27 2010 1:17:35)

that's a classic , you got me kozza, man nah its cool, and when back in Granada i dream of a Manuel bellido, i will get one , in the interim , the lorca is fine .

i saw that had them in Singapore also, its really decent ill have to upload.

i do have an FL2 Ramirez , yet i had traveled through Asia in various climates and its sounding like a bucket off ..........................., prolly just destroy the ramirez and turn some bowls out of it !!![:-]




minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 27 2010 1:19:09)

i cant stop laughing Kozz ?

A bucket off....?
I don't know what to say man, and I certainly do not want to sound like a parent, but.....make a choice!!!!

The FL2 can be fixed, my FN sounded like sith when playing in the sea, but after taking good care of it, its perfect again.

All those small things have givin you temporarily satisfaction, but what you want is a GOOD guitar for lifetime pleasure...then go for it.

I can understand you sometimes wants to give up, 3 notes on a flute, a 4 sting pussy oud, a classical guitar, a plingplong keyboard with foxtrot etc.
From the things I heard from you, you are a good guitarist, so why not support yourselves with a good guitar, which gives you inspiration.

It helps to set a goal for yourselves what you want to achieve....and uuuh, it can't be everything, so you have to make another choice.
Damn, life can be hard when you have to face yourselves and make a choice in it, isn't it?

Sorry for my lecture amigo, I know you just want a good guitar, than thats the way to go. One less world travell and you already have your guitar, but than again you haven't seen that part of the world
[:D] (damn, another choice).

minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 27 2010 2:15:53)

darn oud .

Kozz your back from Spain yeah ?

when i was in Granada, the teacher i had played a manuel bellido it was amazing, not so much the craftsman ship but the sound , so i guess heart set on a guitar from Granada

did you not have the feeling in Spain ?




at_leo_87 -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 27 2010 2:16:18)

hahaha! [:D]
nice lecture!

man, i tried a manuel bellido too. damn! i too wanted a guitar from granada but i'm just not ready yet, financially.

i think your standards are too high! once the spell of granada has worn off, you'll see.




minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 27 2010 2:17:14)

id best upload !!!




at_leo_87 -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 27 2010 2:19:42)

Yes I am back from spain unfortunately. And yes almost every guitar at gigs sounded great, but most of it was also the atmosphere and the mojito's.

As Anthony said, you've got quite some standard....why not cut the price in half and find a decent guitar in that range.

mojito's.


ah yes lovely work gosh ill have to make a mojito they rock !


, i have owned a alot of guitars it be nice to have a good one , and when i played a few bellidos were insanely good


many many guitar builders there so no hurry, the lorca is great at the moment, i mean a bellido in the future , i payed an 89, 87, 79, all were brilliant

although i focus on a few instruments , i adore the guitar (thats why im typing here) , and be so nice to have a good one




minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 27 2010 3:10:02)

minordjango -> RE: new guitar info (Sep. 28 2010 5:39:48)

it be great to be back in granada leo - bit of money needed before hand for me ,

i played few local guys guitars , i liked the manuel bellido owned by Jorge "el Pisao,

there are prolly better guitars about but i like the snappy sound that it had , and a real amount of depth to it
