This Paulino Bernabe concert model flamenco guitar is handmade using aged German spruce from the 1960s, and Spanish cypress that is at least 40 years old.  It is made using the traditional system of bars and fan bracing. It is French polished, and comes with a clear tap plate. Its sound is rapid, brilliant, and very flamenco. The action is set up to meet the demands of modern flamenco guitarists, and is very lively and comfortable.
