Two Guitars by Darío García Coming Soon to GSI
Two new guitars by Spanish luthier Darío García will soon arrive at GSI. Recognized at the 7th Antonio Marin Montero Guitar Making Competition with awards for both flamenco and classical guitars, Darío’s work showcases his dedication to traditional Spanish guitar-making techniques.
Classical Guitar Inspired by Antonio de Torres’s "La Leona"
One of the guitars is a classical model inspired by Antonio de Torres’s famous "La Leona FE 04" Featuring a tornavoz, this guitar is built with a focus on achieving a resonant amd focused tone reminiscent of Torres’s original guitar. The woods used are spruce and satinwood.
Flamenco Guitar with Kamagong Back and Sides
The second instrument is a flamenco guitar featuring an aged spruce top and kamagong wood for the back and sides. The dark color of the spruce top is a result of its age, giving the guitar a striking and beautiful appearance.
Both guitars reflect Darío García’s attention to detail and his commitment to creating high-quality instruments rooted in the Spanish tradition. Stay tuned for more details and sound samples when these guitars arrive at GSI.
