Felipe Conde – Flamenca Moraíto Chico 2017 CF

Description

Felipe Conde and his family are internationally recognised for the unpriceable instruments that were played by such guitar legends as Paco de Lucia, Al Di Meola, Leonard Cohen, Tomatito, etc. The Conde family represents an important part of the twentieth century Spanish guitar’s development and can be dated back to Manuel Ramirez’ workshop where Domingo Esteso, Felipe Conde’s grand-father, used to work. In the late twenties, Felipe Conde’s father and uncle joined Esteso’s workshop (in 1929 and 1926 respectively) and the Conde dynasty was born. Since then, the guitar making craft never left the family. Felipe Conde is now working along with his son Felipe Jr. and his daughter Maria in the workshop at 4 Arrieta St., Madrid. Always in the family’s tradition and spirit, they are building unique instruments for exigent professional flamenco players.
