Fernando is a restless craftsman, not content with making a good guitar, his obsession is to make the best guitar. He has spent much time studying and analyzing, building styles, traditional methods and new techniques to reach a model that gathers the best of both, the traditional system, and the most advanced and sophisticated construction techniques.


Fernando builds his guitars with the Australian system (Smallman type – attice bracing), but much improved. He has been able to join the best of two worlds, power, stability and harmonic richness of the Australian system, and the essence of the sound of the Spanish guitar.
