FS Vintage 1970 Spanish Alfonso Checa Guitar, handmade Artisan instrument, great condition!

Zoonyboy

Lovely Alfonso Checa Handmade Spanish Guitar, made in 1970 in Baza, Granada by the gold medal award-winning maker himself. 
It is made from all solid woods, spruce top and mahogany back and sides, ebony board and a nice handmade rosette, nice bindings, etc. There is the maker's stamp on the back of the headstock and also inside on the neck block.
It has a really proper Spanish sound and is easy to play. NOT a "concert classical" or Flamenco guitar, just a Spanish guitar that sounds and looks great, with lots of dynamics to it. The finish is a lacquer brush type, semi gloss, as they used to be before the factories took over. There's a slight knock or split (tiny) in the back (not really visible in pics, but you can see a couple of other scratches and marks), I took it to a guitar builder and repairer, he said it looked like it had always been there and wasn't damage caused by impact. Then he offered to buy it (that was a good few years ago!). Condition is excellent, overall. Please ask any questions for more info.
 Only selling as I have too many nylon strung guitars. It is a really nice old thing, they just don't make them this way any more.
It has the original case and will be shipped bubble wrapped in a carton unless you would prefer collection in the North East.
£995 UK only, includes shipping
