[Profile] Jose Ramirez is the most famous Spanish guitar brand in the world. This brand has even made the history of Spanish guitar making for more than a century since the era of Jose Ramirez I. In particular, the guitars produced during the era of Jose Ramirez III were both innovative and widely popular, and continued to attract guitar fans from all over the world. The ceder is mainly adopted for the top, and the inside of the both sides is made of cypress, which is used in flamenco guitars, to create a double-layer structure. The string length is 664mm, which is longer than usual, and urea resin was used for the finish. These innovations made by Ramirez III on the classical guitar were truly original and had a great impact on later guitar making in general, and at the same time, the sweet, lustrous, romantic tone, known as the "Ramirez-tone," came to define the very image of the classical guitar.
[Description] This is Jose Ramirez III's flagship model "1A" in Latin American rosewood, made in 1967. This piece was made at a time when Ramirez III was rapidly expanding his fame and market, i.e., when he was at his most productive as a workshop. All models from this period are stamped with the initials of the master builder, and this piece bears the IM stamp, confirming that it was made by Ignacio Manzano Rosas. The overall condition is relatively good considering the age, with minor playing scratches, dents, rub marks, and discoloration of the paint.
