Prudencio Saez Flamenco Luthier – Pro (PS Flamenco Luthier-Series)
Handcrafted in Valencia, Spain – Signed by Pruden Saez Jr.

Construction & Materials
-
Soundboard: Select-grade German Spruce (Picea abies), renowned for its sensitivity, dynamic range, and projection—ideal for percussive flamenco techniques like rasgueado and golpe.
-
Back & Sides: Solid Spanish Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens), configured in a 3-piece back layout to improve structural stability and optimize lower-bout tension, enhancing articulation and bass response.
-
Neck: Spanish Cedar (Cedrela odorata), reinforced with dual carbon fiber rods for long-term stability, neck stiffness, and minimized dead spots—essential under the stress of low action and golpe-style playing.
-
Fingerboard: Premium Ebony, planed for low relief and high-speed articulation, ideal for advanced picado and arpeggio work.
-
Bridge & Binding: Hand-carved Indian Rosewood components offering durability and visual contrast, with tonal dampening qualities suited for fast attack and short sustain typical of flamenco.
-
Rosette: Traditional mosaic inlay.
-
Purfling: Cedar inner purfling, structurally bonded to reduce top distortion over time.
-
Finish: Nitrocellulose lacquer, applied thin to preserve acoustic responsiveness while providing modest surface protection.
-
Tuners: Precision-machined DJ405AB classical machine heads—known for smooth gear ratio and aesthetic appeal.
