1968 Ramirez Flamenco for sale

Hey, Folks

I am considering reasonable offers for my 1968 Ramirez Flamenco cedar top blanca. I prefer to sell, but I might consider trade offers. The guitar is in good condition, but obviously has some playing wear from the last 40+ years of use. I took it to Brune's workshop (if you don't know who he is, welcome to earth) a while back to repair a few cracks, replace the golpeador, and set up the guitar. It's easy to play, feels great, and sounds just like you'd expect from a 60s Ramirez. The trebles are sweet, the lows have a lot of warmth and mid range growl, and the guitar is very balanced. The guitar comes in the original case, which isn't pretty, but it gets the job done.

Neither my photography nor my playing skills are the greatest, but hopefully the pics and sound clips give you a good idea about the guitar. The recording has no effects, and was done today in my room using Window's Sound Recorder and a nice little no-name dynamic mic.

If you have questions, need more photos, or want to make an offer, send me an email through the foro.

Here are some guitar specs:

I guess i need to shrink my photos and change the format of my sound clips. If you're interested, contact me and I'll send you the files directly.

Hi,

A couple questions:

Who made the guitar?

What would you consider a fair price?

How long have you owned the guitar?

Do you know how many owners your guitar has had?

Thank you for your time and have a good weekend.

Dan

Will someone please get that guitar! I have a '79 cedar-Ramírez, great instrument. And the older ones might be even better.
