This is a beautiful Pimentel & Sons M-1 Deluxe C/A Guitar built in June of 2000. These guitars are becoming more and more rare. There is an 18 month waiting list for a new one and they range from 5,000 and up. I am selling this because it was my husbands and I don’t play. I know he would want it it go to someone who can enjoy it verses hanging on our wall. It needs to be re-strung. It has a few dings depicted in the photos. Pimentel & Sons has an international reputation by this point, but it is truly a beloved institution in New Mexico, where the familia of Mexican immigrant Lorenzo Pimentel has been crafting fine custom instruments for more than six decades, since 1963 in Albuquerque. Lorenzo died in 2010 at the age of 82, but by then several of his progeny had been long entrenched in the business: of his 12 children—nine boys and three girls—sons Rick, Robert, and Victor all are master guitar makers (brother Agustin, also a luthier, died in 2014), and two of their other brothers, Hector and Gustavo, are professional guitarists. Their mother, Josefina, has been involved in the company since its creation and has been a strong guiding presence throughout. Lorenzo’s own career building instruments goes back to his teenage years in the 1940s in Ciudad Juaréz, Mexico, where he learned the craft from his half-brothers. https://offerup.com/redirect/?o=aHR0cHM6Ly9jbGFzc2ljYWxndWl0YXJtYWdhemluZS5jb20vbmV3LW1leGljby1sdXRoaWVycy1waW1lbnRlbC1zb25zLXN0aWxsLWJ1aWxkLWd1aXRhcnMtdGhlLW9sZC13YXkv
