I was just wondering if someone could confirm that Tomatito plays a Conde Af25R in the Encuentro video?
I originally asked this in the "What is Tomatito doing here" thread but I think that thread has been covered so exhaustively that it is time to move on!
No question it must be a special AF25R probably made for Tomatito. I believe he also used this same guitar in Carlos Saura's movie, but he has retired it in favor of his Reyes in recent years.
I am so shocked to see that I really want me a AF25R; I have always been into orangey cypress flamencos - always blancas, but somehow that negra with a pale top just rocks. It's probably mostly Tomatito though!
Has anyone else noticed that, according to Encuentro’s site, their Tomatito Book/DVD is no longer available? It appears to be the only one in this state, which surprised me more than somewhat, as I would have thought it would be one of the most popular.

Maybe it is just an odd way for them to say that it is currently sold out (which would match the idea that it is very popular).
