Handmade Fernandes GC40

The Fernandes GC40 is a great grand concert and a high quality guitar in 1970s. It is also one in top of its series after only GC50.

This guitar is in near excellent for its age structural and cosmetic condition although it is over 40 years old. It only has a few very light scratches and nails, those can be seen only from very close distance. Also, a tuning key of the 4th string curves a little bit, that you can only realize this when you tune up its string, and a litte small cloudness spot on the side of the guitar (the last photo) because it is in hardcase over 40 years.

This truly magnificent guitar offers exceptional volume and response combined with very romantic tonality. Its trebles are super sweet, round, yet very crisp. Basses are deep and very strong, and full of overtones, yet relatively clean. All notes are well balanced, note clarity and separation fantastic, sustain amazing.

If you’d like to buy similar grade brand new “hand made in Spain” guitar, you will have to spend at least $10,000. Similar grade brand new instruments made by top Japanese luthiers are priced no less than $6000.
