Bernd Martin - 1980

Bernd Martin - 1980

Overview

Bernard Martin was born in 1954 in Stuttgart, Germany. When he moved to Granada in 1976 he began making his own guitars in the workshops of José Lopez Bellido and Antonio Durán and under the guidance of Eduardo Ferrer. At that time, Bernd Martin was the first German to establish himself in Granada. An important boost to his career came when he won the 1st price in the “Concurso Nacional de Lutheria” (National Luthiery Competition) that was organized by J. L. Romanillos.
This guitar was made in 1980 and is in really good condition, no cracks or repairs. The body is a little bit smaller. The tuning machines are made by Fustero. Comes with the original case.

  • Classical Guitar

    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.
