Classical collectors will be familar with Sakazo Nakade, so little explantion needed. Nakade apprenticed in Spain in the Ramirez workshop,the Spanish flamenco building tradition clearly shows in his work.His guitars were characterised by excellent materials and fine tones. This guitar has a very close grained soundboard (cypress?) and a rosewood body.Extremely rare and in absolute pristine condition with no marks, dings or faults.Signed even makes it more rare.. Believed to have a maple body with a spruce top based on my research.
