José Ramírez III employed a highly skilled group of journeymen luthiers. While the instruments were sold under the Ramírez name, the specific artisan who physically constructed the guitar would stamp their personal initials onto the internal foot block (the heel block inside the soundhole) to claim individual recognition for their craftsmanship.
