'65 Marcelo Barbero for sale!

Hi guys,

Look what I found on Ebay!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Classic-Antique-Spanish-Flamenco-Guitar-MARCELO-BARBERO-1965-/280939798667?pt=Guitar&hash=item416951208b#ht_829wt_1271

This is the real McCoy! A real '65 Marcelo Barbero for less than 1500us! Wow! I am looking forward to that '2001 Santos Hernandez and that 2012 Torres!

At least the label seems to be real.

Sorry, but that label is nothing like the real labels used by Barbero Sr. or Jr.

the label is legit if marcelo came back from the grave and made that guitar. one has to wonder about the folks who actually put in a bid. had it been a marcelino barbero the guitar might have some value as a one of a dying breed sherry brener special. but, the label slapper decided to go with a zombie barbero. heck, the label slapper should have tried to fudge the 65 into a 55 and tried to sell it as one of the last barberos. i guess he was not all that bright.
