I have always admired Juan Miguel Gonzalez flamenco guitars. Over the years I have sold many of his Negra’s and Blanca’s to clients all over the world, and they love them, I can’t recall ever having a client ask me to sell theirs. They seem to really bond with their players and vice versa.

Well known Flamenco artists like Tomatito and Manolo Franco among many others have been clients of Juan Miguel Gonzalez.

This guitar was brought to me by the wife of my client who had purchased it new from me in 2008, but sadly recently passed away. It is in fine condition, a few marks here and there but nothing at all objectionable at all, and the clear tap plates are in fine condition as well.

Nicely played in by now, and exhibiting the well known punch these guitars are known for, she can also sing sweetly when coaxed.

A very nice Blanca from an excellent and widely respected builder.
