Raimundo Classical Mod 660

Luthier Manuel Raimundo – Valencia Spain

Cedar top

Indian Rosewood Back and Sides

Cedar neck

Ebony fretboard and bridge

Bone nut

sycamore inlay borders

Very deep full warm and sweet sounding tones projecting outwards. This model is 660e but it is not the amplified version. This instrument is of excellent quality valued above the actual price which Raimundo kept lower than other luthiers for equivalent quality, playability and tone and suitable for music conservatory teachers and / or students who would like a professional instrument for half the cost. Providing high quality guitars at very competitive pricing was one of Manuel Raimundo’s guiding principles. Sadly passed away, these guitars are no longer made. This one is virtually new, only played for perhaps a month. The bridge saddle bone was reduced for slightly lower action than normal closer to Flamenco height.  It has a slight blemish, an almost invisible discolouration on the soundboard  below the bridge, minuscule, strings have been changed once.
