quote:
Antonio Marin? He played a Marvi Negra on Encuentro, not?
Don´t you read a thread before writing comments? Its written in mine that he played Marvi in the encuentro video. In older threads we talked a lot about that.
There is a story behind the reason why he used that guitar in the encuntro video and not his conde that he played before the video and nowadays.
The storie is, he told Wolfgang Suttner, a german guitar maker that he plays one of his model in the encuentro video if he gets it for 1000Euros. W.Suttner is not very known on the market and that could have been a great chance for him to get known in the business. But he was too proud and said no to that deal. He wanted the normal price of around 5k.
So Marvi said yes to that deal and gave Gerardo a pro Model for low costs, for the commercial.
Otherwise Gerardo would have played his conde in that video.
That encuntro video is one of the reasons why Marvi got so famous. Otherwise we would talk about Suttner guitars now. The Marvi guitars are nice, yes. Very bright, loud, sharp, clear sound and good settings. But they are heavy like a rock. Maybe 5kilos ? It felt like that when I tested one.
Gerardo said later in an interview that he liked that Marvi guitar but he wants to move on stage an that is not posible with that heavy Marvi model. So he switched back to his Conde blanca.
