The complete process to manufacture a classical guitar is described by Master Chacon in this comprehensive manual. He uses excellent photographs, sketches and drawings. It is a very pedagogical method, which is easy to understand by the reader. The simplicity and clarity of the concepts are the result of many hours of precise and intelligent work and dedication. Again, this book bridges the gap in the bibliography of lutherie manuals in Spanish. The processes are described exceedingly well, from the selection of the wood, making the instruments to the final application of wood varnishes and finishes. The book also includes a chapter describing some of the main devices and tools to manufacture guitars, as well as an additional chapter describing a second more traditional method for making guitars.
