The Ramirez family is the most illustrious dynasty in the guitar world. The saga started around 1870 when José Ramirez I finished his education with Francisco González and set up his own workshop. José Ramirez II (1885-1957), who made this guitar, lived for many years in South America where he became a close friend of Augustin Barrios. Many of the greatest guitarists, in both classical and flamenco, has played Ramírez instruments.
