Welcome
My classical and flamenco guitars are based on the Torres/Hauser design tradition, and are tailored to the individual. Aesthetics are important to me and are also addressed individually. My steel string guitars are designed primarily for fingerstyle playing, and are lightly made for light and extra-light string tensions to maximize responsiveness and playability.
I consider the match between player and instrument a crucial relationship, and I work with each customer to achieve an instrument that is well suited musically, physically, and aesthetically. I also consider certain characteristics essential in all my guitars: sufficient power, volume, and projection for the large hall; a broad spectrum of dynamic responses, with a wide variety of colors, tones, and textures; crystalline clarity with good sustain; and evenness and balance throughout with good, clear separation string to string.
Due to the length of my waiting list, I am no longer accepting deposits for new commissions until further notice. However, occasionally one of my instruments becomes available for resale, which I often broker myself. My pre-owned guitars are completely reconditioned and carry my full warranty. If you are interested in a pre-owned guitar please contact me, and visit my Pre-Owned page for updates.
