The Contreras arrived yesterday and everything is in very good condition. The guitar was safely packed in its case and in a cardboard box - it survived the journey perfectly.

My first impression was that this is a great guitar from the somewhat old school of traditional instrument making. I tuned it with the old strings and compared it with my Lietz. I found that the Lietz sounded clearer and more transparent, while the Contreras had a more "mysterious" quality. Both guitars are fantastic, but very different. I finished the day by changing the strings on the Contreras.

The transformation in the morning was enormous. I could hardly believe my ears - the guitar still had its "mysterious" character, but its power had grown exceptionally. The basses were much stronger and deeper, while the trebles sounded with a sustain I've never heard on a classical guitar. Even in a dry room, the double bottom sounds amazing and makes me feel like I'm playing in a church. The power is huge without sacrificing the typical "Madrid" sound. The setup you did was perfect - thank you very much.

Without a doubt, this is the guitar of my life. Now I'm looking forward to the hundreds of hours of practicing to adapt my technique to the slightly wider fretboard before I go on tour in March.

Thank you for the fast and professional delivery. Highly recommended!

A year ago, I visited Michelstadt and Vintage Guitar World with the intention of purchasing a 1982 Faustino Conde. Heiko was incredibly friendly and professional, having prepared seven beautiful guitars for me to try over several hours. I left with an amazing Faustino Conde guitar and fond memories of my time in the charming town of Michelstadt.

Some days ago, I purchased another flamenco guitar from the online shop. As always, the communication was prompt and thorough. The guitar arrived remarkably quickly and was packed with utmost care.

Thank you, Heiko!

Purchased a 1966 Southern Jumbo from Vintage Guitar World in Feb. 2025 and the dialogue while gettin' the deal together was nothing short of excellent. Mr. Liepold showed knowledge, patience & understanding. And proved to have soulful insight as well.
Could not be happier with our exchange - and the ol' Gibson guitar.

This Gerundino Fernandez sounds like a piano!!!! My humble opinion is that Gerundino Fernandez and his father, may he rest in peace, are geniuses, that sound is unique, it is very difficult to reproduce that today and although I have not played any of his son, I had a few years one very close to a friend and I dreamed of that guitar, if someday I can without doubt I will buy one, is my opinion according to my experience, Reyes and Gerundino, not one I have seen regular, all canonazos, Andalusian sound and tradition ... my respects to such a great craftsman of heart. 💕

Vintage Guitar World Comment from Vintage Guitar World:
Thank you very much for your kind comment and for sharing your experience and admiration for Gerundino Fernandez guitars. We are glad to hear that you appreciate their sound and craftsmanship so much.

We completely agree with you: Gerundino Fernández, along with his father (may he rest in peace), has left an impressive legacy in the world of flamenco guitar. His sound is unmistakable, full of soul and tradition, something that few can match today. Each of his guitars is a true work of art, and it is a privilege to be able to enjoy their extraordinary sound quality.

It fills us with satisfaction to know that you have had the opportunity to be close to one of his guitars and that you have been able to appreciate their magic first hand. Without a doubt, both Gerundino and other great names like Reyes have elevated guitar making to an exceptional level, keeping alive the essence of the Andalusian sound.

Thank you again for your message and for sharing your passion for these unique instruments. We hope that one day you will be able to fulfill your dream of holding a Gerundino guitar in your hands.

Best regards and best wishes!
