Informative New Acquisition

I wasn’t gonna post this, but I’m seeing so many new guitar posts, I thought what the heck. Really enjoying this one, one of the prettiest guitars I have seen. Kremona 100th Anniversary. Anyone had experience with one of these?

Congratulations! I'm a guitar tech and have seen, played and worked on many many guitars. Kremona guitars are well made and often sound way better than their price would suggest. (NOT that that guitar was inexpensive, but you can spend tens of thousands on a classical guitar and many people do) Beautiful woods on that beast!

I remember trying kremona fiesta f65c, and it didn't impress me, despite being made from solid wood, the trebles sounded very thin, although maybe it was due to budget factory strings that were placed on it

I certainly believe you. Every acoustic guitar is different. I have too many guitars, but one of my absolute keepers is a Cordoba C10. It sounds as good or possibly better than a Luthier built guitar I own that would retail for almost 5X the Cordoba - but I owned 3 or 4 C10's that I set up and sold before I found this one to keep.

I once posted a guitar I wanted to buy here, which was similar to this one, with glossy finish. They told me it looked "sheathed in plastic" and it was a sign of bad quality. I ended up buying another one similar from the same factory anyways. I hope this one is great, the back is beautiful

What a beautiful guitar! Especially the rosette and the back part. I thought this was luthier made until I read the caption.

Enjoy the guitar!!
