This wonderful Spruce Ignacio Fleta from 1965 is a superb example of why so many fine players have and do play these magnificent instruments. it has very noble voice, complex, dark and hauntingly beautiful and though some remark that certain Fletas can be a challenge for the left hand, such is not the case here, very comfortably playable in all positions. The top is mostly original and in good condition, with two small repaired and stable crack on the lower bout. The back center seam is tight but slightly open however very stable due to the internal center strip supporting it, a fine Fleta and very good condition, with a voice that will just knock you out.
