I have a very nice Gerundino which I am contemplating whether I should sell it or not to get that 1971 Faustino (supposedly owned by Paco). It is very rare to find a negra from that period and the condition of that is amazing. Probably never played before. But I think I can not let the Gerundino go.....tough decisions :) No, TK. Not a tough decision, not even close. Keep your Gerundino. Gerundino's are real thoroughbreds in the flamenco guitar world. I have a Gerundino blanca with bell-clear trebles and an overall great flamenco sound. And it is light as a feather. The '71 Faustino no doubt is a good guitar, but you don't know if it would come close to matching your Gerundino or not. And that Paco may have owned it does not add one whit to its value, its playability, or its sound. Bill
