The ES-08S is a new flamenco guitar by Katoh. It responds very well in all the registers, especially its powerful bass tonalities thanks to some internal build reinforcements, and offers fantastic sound projection. With a solid spruce soundboard, Agathis back and sides, Spanish cedar neck with rosewood fingerboard, the España ES-08S provides the “dry” sound many lovers of Flamenco enjoy. Its two-way adjustable truss rod and tilting bridge give the possibility of low string action for those who really want to move! This guitar features a clear pickguard/tap plate, and stunning colour-dyed maple purfling to give it some extra flair. A beautiful instrument at an unbeatable price.
