This 1975 1a Ramirez has had only one owner and purchased it directly from the shop in Madrid. It is in remarkably good condition, with only some superficial scratches and minor dings in the finish. This is has the kind of sound that one associates with Andres Segovia recordings from the 1960s onwards. I purchased this guitar from the previous owner who bought it from Jose Ramirez III in 1975, and comes with original case and the original letter of purchase. At the time because Segovia used a guitar, with 664mm scale, 54mm nut-- this was what many players wanted. I had my luthier go through it, and set its action up to be very comfortable to play.
