CONDE A25 R BRAZILIAN FELIPE V SHOP

2001 MODEL CONDE A25 R BRAZILIAN FELIPE V SHOP

This flamenco has a fine straight grained solid Brazilian Rosewood, perfectly quarter sawed. It is crack free, dark chocolate, free of knots, and stable. It is entirely french polished. The back and sides almost look lacquer like.

The 650mm scale is also a custom order, and extremely comfortable, without sacrificing volume and response. The action is the lowest I have ever seen work on a flamenco (~2.4mm at 12th fret bass E) where there is only fret buzz when driving it hard.

The Sound - bright, punchy, solid, cutting, EXPLOSIVE - the response immediate and amazingly quick. It is very balanced - crispy trebles, punchy mids, solid bold basses. What I like most is the clarity and sharpness of each note. Projection is fantastic (better than the DeVoe I had) and this is a loud guitar. This guitar has been carefully played in and has opened up nicely.

Condition is excellent. The guitar was played a lot by a professional since its purchase on 2001-2002 time frame. Only two very small dents on the sound board, quite a few very small shallow nail impressions in the French polish on edge of golpeador, the golpeador shows wear that you can see in the pictures. But again, the guitar is in great condition and the light surface marks are minor. It has Irvining Sloane Tuners (New) with black rollers and ebony knobs.

Specifications:
- 650mm scale
- 53mm nut
- 44mm string width at nut
- 2.4mm string height above 12th fret at bass (E) string
- Playability is a dream, very soft and easy

I am not a dealer, just an overspent player like many of the rest of you

Finances dictate its sale. Dan Zeff told me it was the best Conde he ever heard. Contact me at risen@biotrak.com iof you are serious. Thanks for looking.
