jaggedsphere -> Guitar ID: Paco Pena - Flamenco (1971) (Aug. 12 2011 14:27:08)

Could anyone ID the instrument he is playing on this CD? Recorded in 1971.
(May or may not be the same guitar on the cover) Nor am I sure if he is using various guitars...

Judging not from the picture but from memory: in 1971 that would be his Reyes. That CD is taken from his first two flamenco albums (The Incredible Paco Peña and Flamenco. Carnival came in between, with Los Maracuchos).

He played it for several years, until it needed to be refretted. When it came back, in his own words, “it wasn’t the same guitar”.

That may have been the point when he switched to Gerundino, but I’m not sure.
