Antonio Marin Montero - 1984

Antonio Marin Montero - 1984

Overview

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 for whom he worked until opening his own workshop. Today Antonio Marin Montero is one of the most sought after Granadian guitar makers. His guitars are played in concert all around the world and they are, from our point of view, among the best Spanish guitars of our time.

This gorgeous Robert Bouchet model has one of the most beautiful Brazilian rosewood back and sides (CITES certified) that we have seen on a A. M. Montero for a while. Back and sides are in a remarkable state of conservation and free of cracks. The top has four perfectly repaired and stable cracks. This guitar is of course hand signed on the second back-brace by Antonio Marin Montero.
The most rich and delicate tone combined with a perfect balance and the almost infinite seeming sustain, make this one of the most emotional and charming Antonio Marin Montero guitars one could think about.

  • Classical Guitars

    The classical guitar, with its soft nylon strings and characteristic timbre, has become a symbol of chamber music, Spanish tradition, and concert repertoire. Its modern form was shaped by Antonio de Torres in the 19th century, setting the standard for the body, fan bracing, and the 65-centimeter scale length that are still used today. Instruments in this category open up a rich palette from the refined Romantic miniatures of Tárrega to the majestic concertos of Rodrigo. Here you will find guitars that preserve historical continuity and at the same time inspire new interpretations.
