Works for me !
Ten years ago at the age of 55 I got a flier dropped off on my door step for music lessons. Called the instructor up and sighed up for a 1 hour class every Monday night to learn to read music and play classical guitar. Have been taking the lessons ever sense.
In the past couple of years I have wanted to get a Jose Ramirez 1A classical. Probably one of the best nylon string guitars made but I am sure not everyone will agree because their are a lot of fine classical guitars out there. The 1As I have seen and played have been out of my price range but one showed up on EBay a week ago at a very reasonable price with a make offer. It had several watchers but no takers. The guitar has a saddle pickup installed and that is not common for a 1A. In fact it is not the model Ramírez you would want to put a pick and I think it scared off the purists. It doesn’t effect the tone but it does effect the value and collectability of which I don’t care about. Well, I made an offer and it was excepted. It has been paid for and now I have to patently wait for it to arrive. I am very excited.
A Luthier friend I have will be removing the pickup and putting the bridge and saddle back the way it was origionally after I get it.
It’s a 1974 that was built under José Ramírez III
Can’t wait!
You can buy the instrument, lessons and music but you can’t buy the practice.
