I know you aren't asking for opinions but in that price range couldn't you get a JWC? I own an Altamira, but for the money I'd grab this one over and Altamira

The only place I've seen them on sale in the north west was in Forsyths in Manchester. Where are you based?

I am located in Wigan but I go to school in Manchester and school is located 100 meters from Forsyths. I just called them and they said they have mo1 thinline in stock at the moment. I will go and check this guitar tomorrow. The reason why I am asking about alramira is that I checked many youtube videos in relation to gypsy guitar and gitanes presented in those videos didn't sound good to my ear whereas altamiras sounded not bad in my opinions. Maybe this is all about guys who played those guitars. Probably guy who played altamira can make this guitar sound good .

Definitely go for a JWC if you can push to it.

@rafapak You really need to hear the guitar up close in a live situation. You cannot rely on YouTube videos to gauge the sound of a guitar, especially a factory made one. If you can afford it always go for the hand made instrument.
