I consider the golden era of spanish guitarmaking to have extended from the time of Torres all the way up to the 1970s. By that I am referring to not only the caliber of instruments being made in Spain, but the artistry, unique voices and highly refined, identifiable aesthetics of the titans that shaped the contemporary classical guitar in Spain. The guitars of Hernandez y Aguado stand shoulder to shoulder with other makers such as Fleta as high points of design and execution in their time.

This particular guitar is the most pristine HyA I have ever handled with a sound that places it at the very top of their oeuvre. As per usual, Maestro Frank Wallace can convey that better than I ever could...but for me the broad tone palette and immediate, alive response across all registers is no small accomplishment. Surprising in the horsepower department, this is a stunningly beautiful guitar from one of the most revered shops in all of Spain. Rarely seen, these guitars don't come around often.

This guitar is no longer for sale. However I invite any and all inquires, please email me at [email protected]
