This particular guitar was bought Brand New from Faustino Conde in the original shop of Domingo Esteso @ Gravina 7, Madrid. It migrated south to Granada with its owner where it was played lovingly until late 1979 when he brought it back to Faustino to trade in for one of Faustinos Negras; ( which had become quite "In Vogue" during the mid 70's to present day ).
Faustino at that point redid the French Polish finish, & reglued a loose back brace.
The guitar was then bought by an American player who owned it from 1980 until about 9 years ago when I bought the guitar from him.
 
These Vintage Conde Primera "1A" Media Luna guitars possess a sound which seems to be elusive to all new luthiers. Even the new Condes cannot properly emulate this sound that's come to be known as "Old World Sound".
It has a true "Gypsy Voice" that is virtually synonymous with Flamenco Puro.
 
Listen to any classic Paco de Lucia, Tomatito, Melchor de Marchena & even Paco Pena who played these great Golden Era Condes in the 60's & 70's. That is exactly how this special '72 Conde 'speaks' ... OLE !!!
 
 
 This guitar is 100% 'crack free' !  
 ( A rarity with these guitars...)
