This is a fairly typical classical with an ebony board, Indian Rosewood back and sides and cedar top. All solid woods by the way. A very standard but nice looking guitar that says quality. Made in Spain according to the label by the luthier, Angel Rosados.

Sound : 10
Beautiful, rich sound with very nice trebles and good sustain. Typical spanish sound, romantic, mellow and warm.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 10
I got this used so I don't know if the action has been modified but mine plays very well. Nice bookmatching on the woods, nice bridge and no real flaws that I could see.

Reliability/Durability : 9
The guitar appears to be very solid and I would gig with it anywhere, anytime, well except for some roadhouses that I wouldn't even go near. Excellent tuners that look fabulous!

Customer Support : No Opinion
Don't know here because I can't seem to find any of these on the net or anywhere else for that matter.

Overall Rating : 9
I've been playing way too long to sound this crummy but then I learned to finger pick off Joan Baez records by slowing them down to 16. What a chore!! If you can get one of these for under a grand, go for it! It really is a nice sounding, well made guitar that should last and get better with time. It seems to like D'addario EJ45 medium strings. Every time I pick it up it sounds and feels better to me. I'd give it a 10 but I think that should be reserved for a very high end $$$ classical that is so finely constructed and finished that you are terrified to take it out of the case.

This is a very nice full size Spanish Guitar made in Valencia, Spain with all solid woods, Indian back and sides, cedar top and ebony board.

Sound : 10
Great sound with lots of volume, balance with the sought after bell like trebles and heart pounding base. Sounds good up the bard too where the trebles start to lose their punch.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 9
The finish is a little too thin in a very few places on the sides of the neck/board. This baby looks great and really fits the bill when you want a good looking as well as good sounding classical. Like many classicals, the machine heads are the weak point. Don't know why so many luthiers don't pony up a couple of extra $ and put on decent machine heads??

Reliability/Durability : 10
This is a very well made solid guitar that should hold up well unless abused. I would not hesitate to gig with this at any time and at an all night session if necessary.

Customer Support : No Opinion
I have been able to find zero info on this guitar on the net so I don't think locating the maker will happen.

Overall Rating : 10
Been playing a long time and have other high end classicals that cost a lot more money but don't sound as good, let alone better. I bought this as a fluke from an acquaintence that needed the money. At first I ignored it and just let it sit in it's case but on one dark and stormy night I got it out and started plunking around while everybody was out and I had some peace and quiet! I fell in love with this thing so much that it is now my main guitar. I really stole this from the seller and have felt guilty that I ended up with such a nice instrument for so little money. Aaaargh, the guilt! You would have to pay thousands of $ to get a better sounding guitar.
