Daniele claims the inspiration in his work comes primarily from the work of Hauser I and of the Spanish luthiers Antonio de Torres, Esteso and Enrique Garcia. Those historic instruments have extraordinary musical timbral characteristics that Daniele also seeks to capture in his guitars.

In response to the Coronavirus pandemic, GSI employees are handling the instruments with rubber gloves as well as wearing protective masks while preparing for shipping and handling.

Another exceptional guitar from Mr. Berg. Gorgeous materials include a stunning set of European walnut back, sides and head veneer. The top is a beautifully cut, quarter-sawn piece of Western red cedar. And, the sound of the guitar is as elegant as its appearance.

The label reads "Marcelo Barbero (Hijo) para casa de Arcangel Fernandez". This guitar has a wonderful, dark sound with bold basses and strong trebles. It sounds like an old spruce top Miguel Rodriguez (at considerably lower price) from the same era.

This spruce blanca has a fast response and a big, woody, traditional flamenco sound. The tone is clear and focused with a slightly dark texture - "Andalusian" in character. It was built in the city of Almeria: birthplace of Torres and the modern Spanish guitar.

With this, Teodoro continues in the spirit of his previously-released 50^th anniversary model and calls this reincarnation the "Especial Aniversario". It is built using his best materials and features fancier inlay work than his regular "Especial".

The complete, collectible treasure trove of Agustín Barrios Mangoré "El Libro de Oro" is now available at the GSI Store!

For this special model, Henner used only his best materials; they include: a very densely quarter-sawn, Western red cedar top and very old rosewood for the sides and back. The guitar is quite powerful, offering a rich, textured quality of tone with thick basses and lyrical trebles.
