Francisco Barba - 2022 Flamenco Cypress
Francisco Barba - 2022 Flamenco Cypress
Overview
Overview
Francisco Barba was born in Sevilla in 1939. In the early 1960s, he started working as a carpenter with his father. After that time, he decided to become a luthier and began a career that would become one of the most successful in the modern flamenco guitar-making world. Maestro Francisco Barba builds mainly Flamenco guitars, and his instruments are praised for their extraordinary, unique tone with beautiful basses and singing trebles. Today he is considered one of the best living flamenco guitar builders.
This brand new 2022 Francisco Barba comes directly from the Spanish master's workshop. With its only 1420 grams, it is very lightweight and tuned low at around F#. The very functional Gotoh tuners provide excellent tune, and with its typical spruce/cypress combination, it is an outstanding Sevilla-built flamenco guitar. The scale length of this guitar is standard for Barba's flamenco guitars: a 65,5 cm scale combined with a 53 mm nut. Moreover, the low action at 2,6 mm / 2,3 mm makes it an absolute highlight to play.

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.Look all products of the collection -
