2015 Ethan Deutsch SP/CY

Like his background as a player, his guitars are very traditional. They are notably lightweight like the mid-century flamencos coming from Andalucia and have a strong, quick snap to the attack of each note. The quality of sound itself is quite lyrical for a flamenco, but can quickly become aggressive if pushed. It is extremely easy to play for the left hand with a sleek and easy contour to the neck. Additionally, it is ultra-responsive to the touch so very easy on the right hand. Players nervous about the use of traditional wooden pegs will be happy to know that Ethan has installed the Planetary friction pegs into this guitar, so they're actually 'machined', even though they have the old-school look and feel. For the serious flamenco player looking for a fantastic traditional concert flamenco guitar, we can recommend this instrument highly.
