ORIGINAL: birussell I've heard of this guy but have never seen one of his guitars. Does anyone have any pictures of the internal bracing of his guitars? Or even better, where to find plans for his guitars? From what i've read he is in the "pretty good flamenco builder" category alongside barbero and hernandez, so I think it would be interesting to see the differences in the bracing designs I had a friend who had one from the 1930's in unrestored condition. It was a remarkable guitar considering it's age. Loud, responsive and very light. Most guitars that old are pretty much worn out and lifeless. You should be able to find pictures on the internet. The bracing is pretty much standard 7 fan with "v" shaped closing braces but I'm suspect Esteso used various bracing patterns like most luthiers.
