2006 Sebastian Stenzel $6000 plus shipping

[Pepe Vergara]

The best sounding guitar I have ever heard is a Sebastial Stenzel. The best sound ever.

I'm sure the price is an absolute bargain but it's still to rich for me.

I'm intrigued though and wish I could drive over to learn what this instrument does to have earned its reputation.

I live quite close to Sebastian Stenzels workshop and I could watch quite a few of his guitars being created. What is absolutely fascinating about his work is - besides its highest quality - the consistency: the guitars sound basically same with small and subtle differences (they are individuals after all ).

The precision of his work is amazing and his construction priciples very sound and well grounded in the spanish tradition.
I see this with my Sebastian Stenzel Flamenca Blanca (1998 spruce/cypress). It is a flamenco guitar of a very traditional touch but brought to such perfection I hardly can believe is possible.

Of course what kind of guitar one likes to play is a very individual matter and in that sense there might be no linear scale from bad to good to best to place an instrument on; I fell that at least Stenzels guitars are not a fashion wave but classical guitars built to highest standards.

They cost 11,500 US $ and there is a waitig time of at least 2 years by now ...

... go for it if you can, you'll never get any guitar close to it for that price ...

Thank you--I couldn't ask for a better salesman!!

Don't think I haven't been tempted by this Stenzel! I had a chance to play it briefly when I was buying my 7-string Byers from Fugue, and it would make the perfect six string compliment; gorgeous guitar with perfect balance and incredible clarity.

Live a little--succumb to that temptation!

Fugue, there is always organ donation: the liver lobe can regenerate, you have two kidneys.... why sell?

Ummm...I don't like pain?

I had a chance to meet Fugue and play this guitar last week. It is a beaut. The action is spot on perfect, making it a pleasure to play. The sound from the trebles is pure and oh so sweet, and the basses are strong and clear too.

Whoever buys this guitar will be getting a first class guitar instrument for a nice price. Selfishly, I hope it's still for sale in a couple of years when I'll be in the market...

Fugue...

You were in California?

You were in California?

Yup, spent T-day in Fairfield at my sister-in-law's place. I ran up to Davis to visit Fugue Friday morning. Having been away from my guitar for eight days by then, it sure was nice to play a little and talk some guitar with Fugue.

A ripping good time was had by all! It's too bad we can't organize some Delcamp get togethers from time to time! It would be fun to meet the other members.

Interesting, who said you can't? No one prevents you to throw a party! as long as you don't use our host's name - Delcamp - to endorse it

I shouldn't have stated it negatively! It should have been stated as a desire.
