Description
Antonio Marín Montero was born in Granada in 1933. In 1957, he joined master Pérez’s workshop and two years later, in 1959, his father advised him to visit Eduardo Ferrer. Today Antonio Marin Montero is one of the most sought after Granadinian guitar maker.
This cedar-top guitar was built in 2013 an is in amazing condition. It was as carefully handled as it deserves to be, and is now wearing only a very few superficial playing marks. The beauty of the fine cedar top and the highly figured Amazonas rosewood is stunning. This guitar has a straight generous sound with immediate response and great sustain. The thinly worked cedar top is giving to the tone a great depth, fabulous colours and a warm voice. One of the great qualities of Montero’s guitar is how the sympathetic basses resonances reinforce and complete the trebles, and vice versa. A superb concert guitar for Montero’s fans and Spanish tone lovers. The tuning machines are made by Rubner. A hardshell case is included.
