I offer 2 models of flamenco guitars
Cadiz
Inspired by the Traditional school of flamenco guitar making, this guitar offers the typical percussive flamenco sound full of beautiful tones. This well-balanced model is equally suited to accompany cante y baile and solo playing.
Jerez
Inspired by the Manuel Reyes work, this flamenco guitar, in addition to offering the same qualities as the previous model, allows the guitarist to produce a more powerful sound and greater volume.
For the soundboards of my flamenco guitars, I use both Alpine Spruce and Western Red Cedar. For back and sides, I provide the guitarist with a large range of wood (Cypress, Indian Rosewood, Madagascar Rosewood, Santos Rosewood, Curly Maple, Cocobolo, Ziricote, Makassar Ebony, Pau Ferro, Mahogany, Bocote, Paddock, Walnut, Cherry, Pear, Laurel,…)
Algonside the importance of the choice of woods and construction methods that I also apply to my classical guitars, for my flamenco guitars I attach particular importance to the action of the strings, so crucial for the flamenco guitarist. It is therefore not uncommon for an ebony or carbon reinforcement to be added to the neck in order to obtain the most stable action possible and thus offer the guitarist incomparable commodity.
In 2023, I won 1ste prize at the international « Antonio Marin » competition in Granada with my « Cadiz » flamenco guitar model.
