The F7 Paco offers a unique departure from traditional flamenco guitar tonewoods. In honor of Paco De Lucia’s untimely passing in 2014, the F7 Paco's design was inspired by several well-known instruments that were mainstays in the legendary guitarist’s collection. With its solid Canadian Cedar top and Indian Rosewood back and sides, the F7 Paco has a fuller, darker, less biting tone than the standard F7. Built in the Spanish tradition, it is incredibly lightweight, with a slightly thinner body depth than a classical guitar. A high gloss finish, Maple binding, and a clear flamenco-style tap plate complete this homage to a flamenco great.
