[Profile]
Born in Madrid, Spain in 1931. Arcangel Fernandez became friends with Marcelo Barbero I, who was then considered to be the successor to Santos Hernandez, in 1954 and frequently visited Barbero's workshops to learn how to make guitar. Two years later, after Barbello I died at the young age of 52, he took over the workshop, and later, Barbello I's son Marcelo Barbello Hijo joined as a staff member and continued to work together.
The idea of design, selection of materials, and above all, refusal to compromise on timbre has reached an outstanding level. He retired from guitar making in 2011 and is now an increasingly rare brand.

[Description]
A rare classic model of Arcángel Fernández, one of Spain's best guitars, has just arrived.
It can be said to be the ultimate Spanish guitar, surpassing even his master, Barbero I, in terms of its profoundness, balance between single notes and chords, wide variety of expression, and overall elegance. It is an instrument that requires great skill on the part of the player, but when played well, its musical depth is unparalleled. This is the reason why it has attracted so many virtuoso players.
The selection of high quality wood is uncompromising, and beautiful Jacaranda wood is used. There is no history of repairs such as cracks. The back and sides have been refinished. The neck is in good condition and the string height is set for easy playing.
