since it has felipe v on the label it makes sense to send an e-mail to felipe at the site below (see contact icon once site is opened). isn't Felipe V the street named after a king not the name of the shop owner? The naming of the "Felipe V" shop has/had nothing whatsoever to do with Felipe Conde. [8|] The shop just happened to be located on a street that was named for King Felipe (Philip) V who lived from 1683 to 1746. He was the first of the Bourbons to sit on the Spanish throne and was a a grandson of Louis IV of France. No see, they realized in Spain long ago that Conde guitars are the BEST, so they named a bottle of wine after Faustino Conde, and later a street after his nephew Felipe. Wasn't long before kings simply had to change their names too cuz that is how freaking cool those Conde guitars are. And history books recently updated to included revised kings names, etc. That's how it went down, the rest is smoke and mirrors.
