It shouldn't be worth much.

At least I wouldn't want a guitar with the bridge facing the wrong side. [:D]

It's 'shouting' on the interwebz [:D]



keith -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 15 2013 23:24:23)

good catch on the bridge--i wonder whoever did it was using meth or something at the time of the glue job.



Graham_B -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 5:43:10)

There appear to be a number of cracks in the soundboard.

Hopefully these haven't been repaired by the 'Bridge Master'[:D]



cubanmike -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 7:26:27)

keith , the bridge is loose , no one has worked on the guitar yet



cubanmike -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 7:29:06)

There are some cracks , yes im consulting with a luthier this week about repairing that and some other issues , i was able to read the year on the Label , its 1957. Any way i will like to know what ever info i can get possible value, more about the luthier etc.



gerundino63 -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 8:33:49)

Here you have some info in Spanish. From the book: Guitareros de Andalucia.

You can also find info on Google.

keith -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 11:38:43)

cubanmike, it would have been helpful to mention the bridge was unattached and you put it on to show us your find. good luck with the guitar and the repairs.



z6 -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 14:33:59)

HEY, CUBANMIke. That's better. I hope you have a gem. There are people hereabouts with the knowledge you crave. Why not offer a percentage to them?

Ramzi, how about a soundclip of the campfire burning when Mike gives the old nag a decent burial?

I hope your luthier charges you up the wazoo. Cause he's the builder.

Well-spotted on the bridge.

Flamenco is weird. There are phenomenal musicians who can't get a hearing but we find the guitar market flooded with fakes and planks that sell for plenty. Do you show the buyer those pics?

The label is all.



Don Dionisio -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 18:52:21)

If you are meeting with a luthier soon, why not ask him/her if it is an authentic guitar? Or, perhaps the luthier could advise you where to go for an appraisal/restoration. You may have to spend some money to find out.
I'd like to suggest that you consider how you can contribute to our forum rather than asking us to do you a favor.



cubanmike -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 18:56:33)

thanks everyone



cubanmike -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 19:03:17)

Dionisio , i haven't asked you for the fricking time of the day. I already know exactly what i have , and the information has not come from this place .I have never run into so many sarcastic dicks in such a short period of time.



Sr. Martins -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 19:08:30)

So.. you run into dicks?

I suppose you do it like you place your bridge... backwards.



cubanmike -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 19:52:58)

i ment ****S



Leñador -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 19:55:43)

LOL Are we really that bad?? Sure, not every comment was a wealth of info but from what I see a good chunk of people where actually helping. You can't really expect hundreds of random people from all over the world to ALL be helpful and polite?? To top it off, we're guitar players...............notoriously self absorbed and a-holey....



cubanmike -> RE: MANUEL DE LA CHICA (Dec. 16 2013 20:31:45)

Hi Len , i didnt mean every one . But the percentage of idiots is high here .
