Craftmanship - hopefully it will never die out ...
- BnQE - it’s the only way. You can’t make a guitar without it being handmade.
Don't want crafstmanship to die out? That's why we need socialism. Realistically, I'm certain Amazon will eventually come out with some kind of ersatz flamenco guitar...and years from now, that'll be the best we have.
lol no. Guitars arent a "need"...so they will die out in a socialist system.
ZBop stop talking crap. Robotics are not going to take over flamenco guitar making for a long time and if they do they’ll probably be better and cheaper allowing poorer people access to better tools. You have it backwards. Wanting things to be expensive harms the poor.
ZBop stop talking crap. Music is as strong as ever. There has always been terrible music written for vacuous commercial reasons. The reason the music from the 60s is highly thought of is only the best music survived and is pre-filtered by the passage of time. In many way music and greatly moved on since then. Go have a look at all of the history of people saying music is getting worse. People protested like crazy when the piano got popular because it meant less musicians would be needed. Yawn. There are poor people in the US, but there were always more years ago. Much more. Poverty is reducing. There are very clear statistics about world hunger and diseases and life expectancy.
I came upon a Conde back in the early 90’s at a pawn shop of all places. I knew absolutely nothing about Spanish guitars. But it looked be made of Brazilian rosewood. So I purchased it for the large sum of $59.00 dollars. Still not knowing for sure what I had, I did some research and found a specialist of classical guitars who looked it over then offered me $4000. As tempting as it was, I chose to keep it. I still own it, and while it’s a much better guitar than I will ever be as a player, it’s still my pride and joy. I love this video.
CS B, Wow!
CSB, the spanish guitar are the best. Are more sicle to the tradition. Conde hermanos, remirez, alhambras etc
CS B, Amazing! And I am glad you kept it. I don't think you could've gotten anything more meaningful than this guitar with 4000$.
Pawn shops are the absolute best places to hunt for criminally undervalued Guitars. Knowledge truly is power.
Thanks to Google, pawn shops won't be making that mistake again in this day and age. Nice score.
All of that by hand, and eye, and manual skill ?
Incredible !
Yep, just like in the past, when machines doesn't rule our world.
Cheers
$8000 for a reason XDD
At least 3 generation guitar builders reasons.
The "Spanish" method of making guitars, while the "German" method is everything carefully planned and measured..
@@pharmerdavid1432 every piece of wood is different and unique.
A beautiful woman making beautiful instruments!
There's something deeply romantic about this video, I really admire her craft.
Fascinating! How profound that you could make a connection with your grandfather through the wood that he saved for you and the guitar making legacy that he left you.
Very rare
many cultures pass down .....my grandpa taught his grandkids farming and being independent..... my dad taught us the tractor will change but you still need to break the soil....
this makes me wanna go to spain and learn how to make guitar, maybe learn to be an apprentice for 10 years before starting my own workshop back in my country
If that is really your conviction, lady, you should GO and DO that!
Dutch Eagle I second that !
Please come and don’t hesitate!
virginia helzainka here in Mexico you can go to Paracho, Michoacan, it's a very old city and you can find the best hand made guitars in the world.
@@kieraflowers9928 I third that

Beautiful work

I'm in love with her beauty, craftmanship, and passion.
Everything is beautiful in this video
My guitar is watching me watching this
Is jealous.

Put mine in the case, figured it shouldn't hear real playing
It makes me appreciate a handmade guitar much more ! Thank you!
Amazing craftsmanship and building!!!
I'm in love of Conde's guitars.
What beauty in craftsmanship that transforms wood into music.
Makes me realize how precious such guitars really are.
I would love one of those guitars. Hand made with love and so beautiful! Maybe one day.
Thank you for sharing that amazing story about family and your shared passion. May you pass it along to your grandchildren.
What a true beauty. A guitar is a piece of someone’s passion & craft ✨🔥
The instrument my soul loves.
i felt this ... i cried
The most lovely music I ever heard in my life.
Those old clamps are ingenious! Very impressive.
The feeling of wood in my haands.... love it seriously thx for this
Wow. Nothing like the intensity of Flamenco guitar and dance.
This was so cool. To play a guitar with so much into it.....
This is awe-inspiring how such guitars are kind of imbued with the maker's soul.
Beautiful work by a beautiful person 🤘
That was just about one of the sweetest things I've ever viewed on TH-cam......
Love this. Continuing an amazing legacy, working with wood her grandfather bought.
Fascinante! Bravo chica! sigue haciendo el legado de tu abuelo.
Her voice is so sooothing and adorable as she is gorgeous.
The beautiful lady has elegant hands and fingers, beautiful attention to detail and so articulate and well spoken. Love her story. Excellent videography and editing capturing the earthy passionate flamenco vibe. I would love to own one of these guitars one day!
When we play guitar, we feel the heart and soul given when crafting the guitar!! It's difficult to explain with words, but once we have one between our hands, that guitar is priceless. You're doing a a wonderful job miss!! 👏👏👏
Me encantó !! No hay palabras.
Viva la tradición y la música de nuestra tierra !!
Wonderful to know how such guitars start with the wood that's been aged for decades.
So Inspiring
Yo toco la guitarra desde que estaba en primer grado y me gusta mucho admiro a Atahualpa Yupanqui y a Carlos gardel
well edited short. i appreciate my guitar more and more
beautiful
guitarrist at the end is Jeronima Maya,always recommends Conde guitars,so sweet to see him in this video)
Que bello es este arte
you're the legend madam' thanks for sharing ..
"...in flamenco, we want soul…" yess!! soul is everything..
Very talented and beautiful......these are works of art. It must be very satisfying to make one of these
my name is franco, my family history is from spain .although I have never been there, your family business and story captured my heart. beautiful work!
I´ve allways said that making a guitar is as artistical as playing it. Wonderful.
Perfecto! mucho gracias
This video blesses my heart, enormously, and I am just a minute and 20 in ... This will mean nothing to anyone reading what I write ... But I fell in love with the guitar when my first grade teacher read us a book about a classical guitar building family from Spain ... back in 1953. From that book, my love for the guitar grew until I became a guitarist myself, starting in 1959, and seriously, in 1961, and until this day (31March2019), more than 57 years later. Some of the very first things I learned, was Flamenco that my grandmother taught me.
I cannot describe the joy I feel, in seeing that little book come to life, and the craftsmanship continued by a beautiful young woman, no less, who is absolutely precious to boot. How cool is that?
Very cool. Thank you for sharing and may you play for many more years to come😎
I love this series pls make more
Qué hermosura poesía en cada segundo de este video. Perfecto.
the story with her grandfather was deep.
yeah deeply fake excuse for the guitar cost
Brian Friedman you have no respect. At least she creates something. And you are a nobody. Have some respect.
@@brianfriedman101 Brian - 0ff you go to Walmart - lowlife
@@brianfriedman101 ..they actually think she has a warehouse of 30 year old wood waiting for her magic hands. On a shelf in her workshop that has been fast treated to dry and cut on a cnc machine.
amzing work
Beauty in work and looks ..........very nice lady !
She is gorgeous!!!!! (the guitars too)
Wonderful. I once played one and it was absolutly fantastick.
What a wonderful video. In an age of mass production, it is inspiring to learn about your skill and art in creating my favorite instrument.
I'm so lucky to live in almeria( the home of the original moden style of guitar) and am surrounded by great guitars,great players,and the passion of my spanish neighbors.
I've had my FC28 for 4 years, it's an incredibly precisely made instrument and it continues to improve. Me encanta mi guitarra.
Que lindo ver una dama trabajando la madera , transformandola en una guitarra , felicitaciones soy Chileno y tambien soy constructor de guitarras .
