Ok boys and girls. Read em and weep!

As of yesterday I am the proud owner of a 2003 M Tezano-Perez Brazilian negra. This is truly a world-class negra. Not super load, but beautiful overtones. I've only played it a few hours, but I can tell it's going to be a killer. This guitar sells in the US for over $7,000. I did a bit of horse-trading and got it at a very steep discount to say the least. It's basically new.

Both Tezanos and Perez worked in the Ramirez shop for years before moving on.

I'll get an audio file of it when I get a bit more comfortable with it.

congrats. I've never heard of them but from what you say they must be great. Please post a review when you've gotten a handle on the guitar.

Congratulations!

How is the action? How is the sustain compared to a decent blanca?

I don't know if anyone likes such things, but I got a guitar sleeve to protect mine while I practice (from gspguitar.com), it helps with minor dings. nice to have with a new guitar. Also there's a product you can put over the top that fits around the bridge while you change strings, it's called the Bridge Bib, $7.00 at stringsbymail.com

Have fun with it!

Anthony

Miguel,

Do a Google for "Tezano Perez guitar" and you will get all kinds of stuff. They are two fellows that work as a team. They are currently considered two of the hottest builders in Spain. With all the garbage going on in the Spanish guitar business, I think they are very upright. I don't believe they farm anything out.

You don't hear much about them because almost all of the guitars they build go to Japan.

Here's a link about them: http://www.casabenelly.nl/default_en.htm

This is the same model I got: http://www.trilogyguitars.com/guitars/tezanos_perez_FL/

Anthony,

It has a moderately low action. I can still take it down a bit more.

As for sustain, that's really the hallmark of a negra versus a blanca. This one has excellent sustain. Negras are whole different beast. Personally, I've only played three negras including this one that I liked. Most of the negras IMO are nothing more than classicals with tap plates on them.

In my opinion a negra should sound as close to a blanca as possible with longer sustain and more refined tone. That being said, I am still having Aaron Green build me a blanca. It's a tough sell to get me to give up a good blanca.

I also use the Bid for every string change. It's the best $7.00 you will spend.

Pat
