RE: 1963 Ramirez Spruce top flamenco (in reply to yourwhathurts69)

Wow! What's up with all of the good Ramirez guitars coming up for sale lately? I bought a 61 last week. A friend called me up and said that someone was trying to sell it to Guitar Center and that they were trying to take the seller for a ride. No surprise there, at GC here they can't even string a flamenco, and call the tap a pick guard... Never the less I told him to get the guys number and that I would like a shot at putting in an offer. After all was said and done it turned out that it was some 25 year old guy with no interest in flamenco, and he wanted to just get rid of the guitar. He said that it was left to him by his grandfather... It seemed like a sin for him to sell it if you ask me, but it didn't seem like a sin to buy it. I had been holding off and was thinking of ordering another Paracho guitar, a Castillo or Navarro, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to own a good historic guitar. This one has some dings but is good over all. I had to beg my wife, but I got it. If you ask me $4000 is a great price for this guitar, and if I could beg the wife again, I would love to get it... Don't know how likely that will be though. Guitar Solo had a 73 a few months ago and the condition was near perfect and the price was $7500 as I recall. Guitar Salon also had a 1960 with some cracks and they were asking $3500 for that one. With the condition of this guitar I would say $4000 is way more than reasonable... She'll find a good home, that's a sure bet. I have played a few Ramirez duds from the 70s, but everything I have seen from the 60s were great and powerful. Of course you can't go by me though, I have only played 5 or so which were made in the 60s.
