CONTRERAS / Manuel 1 Doblo Tapa 25th Anniversario / 1994 / Guitar

This is a Manuel Contreras 1, 25th anniversary, signed, stamped and made by Manuel Contreras 1 himself. This is a very rare guitar of which he made only a handful. This guitar is typically a Contreras 1, innovative and pushing the limits and enhancing the tone with great skills using logical innovations. The guitar is made with double brazilian rosewood back and sides (cites included) of the highest quality, topped with the finest Canadian cedar, with Exterior Back Support, lap- and arm-rest that were designed to avoid the body to dampen the tone, and optimize power, volume and projection. Beautiful detailing, with marquetry rosette, herringbone style matchin- purfling, Brazilian rosewood bridge and Peghead overlay, Fustero tuners. This is one of a limited edition of the 25th Anniversario guitars designed by Manuel Contreras ibn his never lasting attempt to improve, tone volume and projection.  This amazing sounding instrument - be sure to check out Edu Postma playing this guitar.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
