A truly exceptional guitar from the "Golden Era" of the Ramirez shop, a 1969 1a Classical Guitar signed by luthier Mariano Tezanos (M.T.) in Brazilian Rosewood with a natural finish accented with a neck in Mahogany, an Ebony fingerboard, and Cedar top wood.

Identified by the "MT" stamp inside the guitar's heel, this exceptional instrument was crafted by the renowned luthier Mariano Tezanos, who also built Andres Segovia's Ramirez guitar in 1968, making it one of the most coveted Ramirez guitars.
