The Ramirez 130 Anos model was the last Ramirez ‘Anniversary’ model before it evolved into the present del Tiempo for their fifth generation, 135th anniversary. Like other Anniversary models, it was built for a five year period – here from 2012 to 2017. These models are part of the Ramirez Studio line, intended for advanced students and semi-professional players.
Based on the very popular 125th Anniversary model, the major visual changes for the Ramirez 130 Anos were to the rosette, purfling and soundhole label. As well, the bridge sports a subtle physical change- a small extension behind the tie block, helping to protect the top from string ends. Inside there is a refined bracing system developed by Amalia Ramirez.
This Spruce Top example dates to 2013 at the Ramirez shop at No. 8 Calle de la Paz in Madrid, Spain. It is in very good, clean condition with almost no wear.
Here is Grant MacNeill talking about this particular Ramirez 130 Anos:
“Purchased from us new in the spring of 2018, this mint condition 130th Anniversary Ramirez is an excellent example of the model with clean clear trebles and full, powerful bass, well balanced throughout the entire range.
The spruce top is very close-grained and uniform and offers up the rich harmonic content one expects from a well-made spruce top Ramirez. It is supported by 13 delicate braces using the “parallel-fan” system developed by Maestro-Luthier Amalia Ramirez.
It is currently setup at 7.5/64 treble to 8/64 bass which is at the low end of the standard classical guitar action range. There is no history of repairs or abuse and the finish is unblemished.”
The original Ramirez case is included.
NOTE: Due to the Rosewood content, a CITES permit is required if this guitar is shipped to the USA. While we will look after this, it can impose a shipping delay while the documents are processed.
