Taurus Classical Model 50 Ramirez Style Barcelona Spain Acoustic Guitar 1974 w/ SKB Travel Case . One small ding in top by bridge - You can still smell the strong cedar aroma after all these years . A beautiful full sounding very easy to play yearning for a classical player .My husband bought and sold guitars for 25 plus years setting up at the Dallas Guitar Show , the Arlington Guitar Show , the Fort Worth Guitar Show and going to the Austin Guitar Show to buy and sell guitars and amps . This was the classical he set back , after buying and selling dozens , for its tone , playability , condition and price for himself . But being a blues player , at 66 years old , he felt that he didn't have the time or inclination to learn classical guitar worthy of this guitar , so he decided to say goodbye for someone else's enjoyment.The following was picked up for your perusal and has nothing to do with the guitar we have for sale - it is for information only .It has been said that the Taurus workshop in Barcelona made "Estudio" models for Ramirez. On ***i-buy***, I have seen today a really beautiful "Ramirez Estudio" (blue label) made in 1977 with original Ramirez papers etc. (there are many full-size pictures, just search for "RAMIREZ ESTUDIO VINTAGE 1977") - well, and this guitar is indeed 100% (headstock, rosette, ...) identical with my Taurus model 60 made in 1977 and signed on the label by Arturo Grau. Only the tuners have been replaced. (On my guitars these are Fusteros, same type as on my Contreras 1980). I would post pictures but I do not want to post here the pictures of the Ramirez on the auction site. Probably, at least in the mid 70ies, Taurus made guitars ***extremely*** similar as these Ramirez "Estudio" guitars. The (huge) dimensions of my Taurus are Ramirez like, as is the bracing with a strong diagonal bar up to the sound hole, and the one-piece cedar top. This is also interesting since Antonio Picado was then working at Taurus.
