Guitars International is honored to offer to its customers the beautiful handcrafted classical and flamenco guitars of German Vazquez Rubio (also sometimes referred to as G.V. Rubio, German V. Rubio, German Rubio and German Vazquez).

Clear and simple, this is a uniquely beautiful, musically magnificent concert guitar (hence the "Especial" designation): its sound is very powerful, warm, round, harmonically rich yet controlled and very focused. Due in part to its internal cedar/Brazilian back lamination, this instrument has substantially greater projection, depth and complexity of sound, is even smoother note to note, and is a little more open than Vazquez Rubio's very impressive standard Hauser Model. Superb quality of sound in line with the greatest Old World masters, contemporary reserves of power plus this award winning maker's exceptionally wide color pallete make this handcrafted work of art one of the most impressive new concert guitars it has been our pleasure to play or hear - a fantastic value, competitive with instruments priced many thousands of dollars more.

Materials: Dark Br. sides and back, close straight grain European spr. soundboard, superb French polish of shellac finish and workmanship, Rodgers precision tuning machines (the finest in the world), TKL deluxe double arched hardshell case, 650mm string length, Galli Genius hard tension strings, one year written warranty.
