O Rei dos Violões Rare vintage Brazilian nylon-string guitar!

This rare nylon-string Brazilian guitar was made by Tonante, under the brand “O Rei dos Violões” (The King of Acoustic Guitars), and has a striking and unusual cream-colored finish. The neck is solid and straight, and is securely fastened to the body. The frets are in good shape, making this guitar easy to play. The sound is warm as you would expect from a vintage Brazilian guitar. It is fun both to play and to look at.

The bridge is stable, and the tuning machines work smoothly. There is an expected amount of finish checking for a guitar of this vintage but it doesn’t affect the sound or playability.

“Tonante, initially called Ao Rei dos Violões Limitada (To the King of Acoustic Guitars in English), was started on April 5 of 1954 by the Portuguese brothers Abel and Samuel Tonante who artisanally built musical instruments, thirteen years after their arrival in Brazil. Tonante is well known for making highly affordable stringed instruments in Brazil, together with companies such as Giannini, Del Vecchio and Di Giorgio.” —Wikipedia
