Open 7 fan struts system (based on Santos Hernández) The strutting in the flamenco guitar is usually kept quite simple, because the rather free, open, earthy sound is best achieved if the soundboard is not too controlled in how it vibrates. Santos Hernandez used seven fan struts, but no closing struts at the lower end of the guitar. However this guitar works as well as classical.


The Acacia has the sharpness and clarity of a fine Rosewood, but with all the warmth, thick tone and lightness of Mahogany. Its definition of individual note has a magnificent separation, with power and projection almost self-generated.


(I wasn't able to flip the video, but no worries the guitar is for right handed)
