Two comments to earlier postings: Robert Bouchet, a painter by training, produced only 156 guitars in his lifetime - one particularly fine instrument was stolen from Julian Bream's car in 1962.
The piece played on this video is by Manuel de Falla - "Ommagio per Chitarra: Tombeau de Claude Debussy" written for Segovia.
The phase is reverse.

Apologies to the performer. What a shame this rare guitar is not being played by a fine player so we could get a glimpse of its potential.
