Arcangel Fernandez



SOLD OUT
[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 highly appreciated guitar from the 1950s. There is a 7cm crack repair on the back, but the entire surface has been refinished and is in beautiful condition. The sound is sustained yet sharp and well balanced. Solid and powerful sound quality.
