Domingo Esteso (1882–1937) was a luthier who trained under Manuel Ramírez. His nephews, Faustino and Mariano Conde inherited his workshop and changed the name to Conde Hermanos.[citation needed]
Esteso concentrated almost exclusively on building flamenco-style guitars, and his instruments are world-renowned for their physical lightness, yet very strong volume and sound-projection. A crack-free and unmolested example can cost several tens of thousands, either Euros or $. Most remaining Estesos however have been somewhat, up to extensively, repaired; due to the age and fragility of the instruments and the firm, often percussive playing-style associated with flamenco.
