Esteve 4STE Classical Made in Spain

The Esteve (pronounced Es-TEH-vay) line of guitars come from a workshop in the beautiful Mediterranean coastal farming town of Alboraya, Spain, near Valencia. The shop was started in the 1950's by Francisco Esteve and Manuel Adalid Sr. Today it is a very busy workshop of about 40 artisans crafting high quality guitars by hand. The shop is still in the family tradition and is now managed by Manuel Adalid Jr. Over half a century of dedication to the highest standards of lutherie in the great Spanish tradition has distinguished the name of Esteve as one of the best in the world. 

The Esteve line of guitars is characterized by a traditional "Spanish" tone that is deep, rich and of a warm quality. Their outstanding tone quality is achieved by using only solid cedar or spruce on the soundboards and high quality rosewood, ovangkol and mahogany for all models. Attention to the fine points of string set-up make this model of Esteve a pleasure to play.
This Esteve Model 4STE has a solid spruce soundboard wrapped in Indian rosewood purfling with exotic Ovangkol veneer back and sides, making this a very attractive guitar. It has a wonderfully bright tone and broad bass with respectable volume. 
This guitar in immaculate. Beautiful in both sight and sound. 
Also included is a Guardian brand hard case. It's light, and shows some wear inside and out. The upper screws on the center buckle are stripped, though it does it's job.
