This instrument has all the qualities of an exceptional Romanillos - in short, a sweet and lyrical tone with excellent separation. The volume is excellent and yet it's almost "noiseless" - string noise and nail noise are absorbed and not amplified, allowing the notes themselves to sound unhindered. All in all, this is a remarkable musical instrument. The guitar has the classic Romanillos aesthetic - the Moorish arches in the headshape and in the mosaic of the rosette. Although a "full-sized" concert instrument, the body proportions a bit more compact, reminiscent of the classic large-sized "Torres" and early Hauser I styles, of which Romanillos is perhaps the greatest champion. Condition is excellent, with one small repair to the back and original finish with only some normal signs of playing wear. Suitable for either performer or collector, a masterpiece from one of the top luthiers of the 20th century.Orfeo article on Jose Romanillos
