The Granary Collection - Julian Gomez Ramirez three-quarter size guitar, made in Paris, France, circa 1938; Back and sides: rosewood; Top: spruce; Neck: cedar; Fretboard: ebony; Frets: nickel; Tuners: brass plate tuners with circular buttons; Nut width: 52mm; Scale length: 515mm; Case: hard case

*From The Granary Collection.

Condition notes: top showing signs of wear with nail marks, along with a repaired crack between the bridge and body end. Repaired cracks are also visible to the back. The current frets appear in good shape as well as the neck and board.

Interestingly, these guitars are made of highest quality with very few corners cut in their making. They are almost perfect miniatures of the makers full size instruments and it is perhaps surprising that so much care was taken for a child’s guitar. If you have small hands, the are very playable and sound great!
