La Gorriona

This is a lightweight flamenco guitar inspired by the models of renowned luthier Santos Hernández. Built with spruce and cypress, it produces a bright, slightly dry sound, ideal for flamenco. Handcrafted with traditional shellac, it preserves the instrument’s full acoustic character. Its light, simple appearance is complemented by understated, elegant details.
