Description
This amazing guitar was made in 1980 by Andres Dominguez.
Andres Dominguez Guerrero is a luthier in Sevilla, Spain. He was born in Jerez de la Frontera in 1947. As a young man he was drawn to the guitar. At the age of 12, he debuted as a flamenco guitarist at the La Pañoleta en Jerez, where he rubbed elbows with great flamenco artists such as Fernando Galo, Romerito de Jero, and El Niño Jero. His love for the instruments, however, eventually drew him into building.
In 1965, Andres Dominguez began an apprenticeship with the luthier Manuel Ortega Sousa in Sevilla. Under his tutelage, Andrés honed his skills as a guitar maker, and in 1970 established his own workshop. Andres Dominguez is famous among the Spanish luthiers. Luis F. Leal Pinar devotes an entire chapter in “Guitarreros de Andalucia” (2004) to him. His handmade classical and flamenco guitars are based on the designs of Santos Hernandez. The sound he seeks in his guitars is one that is both focused and sweet. As he builds entirely by hand using traditional techniques of construction, his production is limited to about 15 guitars a year.
This flamenco guitar is entirely handmade. It has a spruce top and cypress back and sides. The scale length is 655 mm and the nut width 52 mm.
It falls into our special category: Players dream and collectors nightmare. It shows a huge amount of wear from play and use all around and has also received some repairs. On the other hand it plays and sounds like a champ and definitely has the sound of a guitar from the great Spanish makers: Santos Hernandez, Modesto Borreguero, Arcangel Fernandez, Marcelo Barbero … we have had all these guitars and know what we are talking about!
The sound of this guitar is bold and loud. It has a very clear and detailed tone with a lot of quality and fine timbres.
Its enormously powerful and has a great dynamic – a lot of fun to play this cool guitar.
The sound quality can be described as a bit mystical with magical attraction. The guitar fills the entire room with the most beautiful tones and impresses with a breathtaking variety of timbres. An absolutely noble instrument on concert level – very finely built for highest tonal demands.
The guitar has been professionally restored and is 100% ready to play. It comes with the original case.
