This is a very fine bench copy of an original FE18 Antonio de Torres by Pablo Requena in his Lewis workshop in Sussex dated 2013.
Those familiar with the work of Requena, will know just how thorough he is in woodwork and guitar construction. Having played both guitars in 2013, I can honestly say it's a wonderful tribute to the original and a superb musical instrument in its own right. It's had one owner over the years and has now developed into a mature sounding guitar with amazing balance and surprising projection. The owner has kept the guitar in immaculate condition.
Must be seen and played to be believed and appreciated.
