WITHDRAWN: Taurus Classical Guitar – Model 56 – Made in Spain – 1970s

Taurus Model 56

• Solid rosewood back and sides
• Cedar top
• Cedar neck (I think)
• Ebony Fingerboard
• 660mm scale length
• Recently strung with Savarez strings
• Period correct, albeit somewhat worn, case (small compartment needs screwing back together)
• Made in Spain

As far as I'm aware I'm the third owner. Long story short the first owner had it in storage for most of its life, the second owner bought  on a whim and put back up for sale, and I've had it for around three years.  Anyway, it's lack of use for a 50-year-old guitar shows. There's barely a mark on it. There is a slight dip to the top but nothing that affects its playability. 

FWIW Taurus were commissioned by Ramirez back in the day to build their student models, so clearly a highly regarded workshop. More info can be found here. From the label it was made in either 1971, '74, or '77 – I can't quite make out which. 

Overall, this is a wonderful and well made classical guitar. It plays and sounds great. Reason for sale is I no longer have the enthusiasm for classical, so I'm moving it on for someone else to enjoy.

£395. This is a steal IMHO. I would argue you'd need to spend double or more to get a modern day equivalent.

Collection from Hull area preferred. Alternatively, with a contribution to my fare, I'm happy to travel a reasonable distance on the train, should it help.

Any questions, please ask

Bump. Trade option added for pedals or an acoustic guitar.

Bump for an amazing classical guitar.

Withdrawn. Who knows, I might get the urge to play again, and I won’t get a better classical for the money. Might as well keep it for a rainy, Romanza, day
