2023 Esteban Gonzalez GUITARRA CONTEMPORÁNEA Red Cedar Madagascar Jacaranda

Esteban Gonzalez is a master luthier in Buenos Aires, Argentina. (https://www.estebangonzalezmusica.com.ar/guitarras) He's built for the biggest tango players. Unfortunately, because Americans tend to look east for guitars and not south, he's not well known here. This is a wonderful, more modern-sounding instrument probably best for players crossing classical-popular boundaries. It's got an LR Baggs HiFi pickup installed, which is a very reliable piece of equipment and sounds great. The instrument is basically like new except for the smattering of shallow nail marks below the high-E string. The third photo shows this. That's why I've knocked off $1000 from the new price of $5000 (not including the plane ticket). Happy to answer any other questions you might have. For what it's worth, I'm a professional choro guitarist with a classical background. I've quite enjoyed the instrument. Also, it's a 12-hole bridge, but I was using 6. There's nothing wrong with the 12. There's a sound port. Comes with custom-built case and preamp.
