[Profile]
Jose Ramirez is the most famous Spanish guitar brand in the world. This brand has even made the history of Spanish guitar making for more than a century since the era of Jose Ramirez I. In particular, the guitars produced during the era of Jose Ramirez III were both innovative and widely popular, and continued to attract guitar fans from all over the world.
The ceder is mainly adopted for the top, and the inside of the both sides is made of cypress, which is used in flamenco guitars, to create a double-layer structure. The string length is 664mm, which is longer than usual, and urea resin was used for the finish. These innovations made by Ramirez III on the classical guitar were truly original and had a great impact on later guitar making in general, and at the same time, the sweet, lustrous, romantic tone, known as the 'Ramirez-tone,' came to define the very image of the classical guitar.
The flagship model of Jose Ramirez III is '1A'. The basic shape of this model was created in 1964. Compared to the 1960s, the 1970s version has undergone several minor changes according to the demands of the times, and each guitar has different characteristics.

[Description]
The sound board has been painted over and the back and sides have been repainted. There are no cracks, few scratches, and it is in fairly good condition for its age. The neck is not warped and the string height has been adjusted for easy playability. The tuning machines are fitted with Fustero Ramirez type tuning machines, which are believed to be original.
This guitar has the rich volume, deep bass, and tight treble of the highly acclaimed Ramirez guitars of the 1960s, and has the thickness and transparency characteristic of Ramirez guitars. The sound board is made of spruce, and it is a masterpiece with the IM stamp inside the body.
