Frequently Asked Questions
The Sabicas represents the pinnacle of their flamenco line, featuring higher-grade materials like solid spruce and a more complex back construction for enhanced tonal depth.
While beautiful, the oiled finish is more porous and requires occasional re-oiling to maintain its protection and appearance – it’s not as resilient as a gloss finish.
The neck is thinner and more traditionally shaped, which some players find incredibly comfortable, while others may need a short adjustment period. It’s definitely a departure from modern, wider necks.
