Bruunari Flamenco Guitar: FL I
Description:
An original Bruunari is a handmade instrument and comes in three different types: the Bruunari classical, the Bruunari flamenco and the Bruunari gypsy guitar. This page displays information about the Bruunari flamenco.
If you are interested in buying a new Bruunari guitar you should order it first. Although I do have one classical and one flamenco Bruunari in my possession, they are not to be sold but are meant for testing. So, if you live in the Netherlands and are interested, you should contact me for an appointment. If you live outside the Netherlands, the best you can do is check out the video samples for a sound impression.
The price of a new Bruunari guitar ranges between € 1800 en € 2200, primarily depending on the material of your choice.
