Description
P. Bernabé Sr. was one of the greatest and best-known luthiers from Spain. In 1969 Paulino Bernabé Sr. founded his first workshop. He experimented a lot and developed a new order of top bracing, consisting of four struts arranged in a fan-like manner from the sound hole and supported by three reinforcing struts. From the 1980s onwards, he worked together with his son. This guitar was built by Paulino Bernabé Senior in 2001 and is in good condition. It has some handling marks and a ding below the bridge that was caused by a slipped string. The top is made of very fine spruce, back and sides are made of Indian Rosewood. The tuning machines are made by Rubner. The guitar comes with a Paulino Bernabé case.
