kazuya123 -> Search for new Guitar (Aug. 17 2014 14:47:40)

Hello,

I have been playing guitar for 7 years now and always admired flamenco Music in particular.
Since I have a big crack in my old guitar, which I never liked anyway, I am looking forward to buy myself a new one.

First of all I need to say that I do have very small knowledge on Luthiers and brands. I do know the most important ones, but have played only a few of them.
And since the Forum has countless experts, i hope get an advice by you.

My budget is around 2000 euro (appx 2500 Dollar). I think I would rather go for a blanca then a negra.
I would really like to buy a guitar with bity and aggressiv tone that is very loud.

I would be very gladful if you could give me any suggestions. Thank you

Hello kazuya,

at this price I would go for the Camps Primera. It´s price is at 1.550 €. I was given the prototype on the Frankfurt Musikmesse in 2005 "behind the curtain" by Jordi Camps. In 2006 I wrote a review for the German magazine Akustik Gitarre. The Primera has developed and became better over the years.

Where do you live?



kazuya123 -> RE: Search for new Guitar (Aug. 17 2014 19:18:24)

Thank you very much,

I live in Germany as you do ,I assume.


Schöne Grüße

Ja, bingo :-)
Hast eine PN bekommen.

Schöne Grüße zurück

Good Morning everybody. Why not to skip from a good professional guitar to a 100% hand-made one; it is really worthy and the price increases slightly. I myself have very affordable artisan, fine guitars:

It is a life-long guitar and its value, volume and quality shall increase with the time.

I hope this will help you to take a decision.

If you're willing to go up in price a little, this is a great hand-made blanca which I played five weeks ago. Highly recommended.

From outside of the European Community you can calculate nearly 30 % more because of customs and import tax. That´s why I don´t buy expensive goods from outside of the EC.

There's a Navarro concert Blanca in the classifieds section right now for 1300 euros. That's worth at least looking into.



gj Michelob -> RE: Search for new Guitar (Aug. 19 2014 14:55:47)

This is a good one:

kazuya123 -> RE: Search for new Guitar (Aug. 19 2014 18:09:07)

Thank you very much for all the ideas.

As Bernd said, it is hard to buy something outside of the EU, because the taxes can go up to 30%,.

Well i went to a guitar shop here today and tried a few Alhambras, which I did not like at all.

2000 Euros buy a 2A from Anders http://www.foroflamenco.com/tm.asp?m=257702&p=1&tmode=1&smode=1 best you can buy at that price. He has a few on the way email him.

Antonio Raya Ferrer in granada had one blanca for 2500 in his shop in granada, maybe it's still there. It was a great guitar, maybe he can make another for around that price if it was sold.



Miguel de Maria -> RE: Search for new Guitar (Aug. 20 2014 20:52:20)

John Shelton, who posts on this forum, makes a great guitar for about that much. I have one. Don't know about the tax situation--he is in the US.
