Nice pictures! The guitar looks very nice... the only thing I'm not too fond of is the headstock, there are too many things happening there and it lacks a little personality IMO... but it's just a cosmetic thing and says nothing about the quality of the guitar. Yours is a pretty old one actually... he was not very famous back then. Maybe he has even improved his guitars a little since then... Solera Flamenca seems to think so since they are charging a hefty € 6,500 for a guitar from him, that's around USD 8,600 at today's rate! Still cheaper than a new Conde, but more expensive than a new Pedro de Miguel or a new Paulino Bernabe! http://www.flamencoguitarsforsale.net/es/guitarras-flamencas/nuevas/caceres-2013-rosa.html The guitar sounds very raw and loud from the video of Anton Jimenez playing it... I love that! It wasn't well recorded though so it's difficult to get a good idea of what it really sounds like. Thanks for the tip about getting in touch with him on Facebook... I'll send him an email asking for the price and waiting time for a negra... I might even go see him if my plan of going to Madrid in October becomes reality.
