rafapak -> guitars' price range and wood used (Aug. 12 2015 21:12:08)

hi

do you know guys by any chance at what price range those guitars are ? I like the sound of them but don't know how much one is supposed to pay for this sound.

1.

2.

3. Is this possible to judge by watching youtube clips what kind of wood was used for building those guitars ?

It's impossible to gauge the price range from the sound alone. What is the make? The luthier? The model? The label was too small for me to read when it was flashed at the beginning. I have three flamencos, including one relatively inexpensive Manuel Adalid viviana blanca for which I paid $2,500. Yet, the Manuel Adalid sounds as good as, or better than, some guitars I have played that were in the range of $5,000 or more. I think it is a mistake to judge a guitar's monetary value by sound alone because you can easily be deceived.

The woods used are almost certainly Spruce top, Cypress back and sides and Cedar necks. I have seen this combination used on guitars at around the £300 and definately used all of the way up until your eyes bleed. I believe La Leona by Torres is a Spruce/Cypress.

It just happens to be the most traditional wood combination for a flamenco guitar
