2018 Andres Marvi SP/CY

Diese Gitarre ist sehr leicht gebaut und bietet enorme Kraft und Projektion. Sie reagiert ultraschnell mit einem knackigen Anschlag und sanftem Abklingen, was sie sehr leicht spielbar macht. Super lebendig und mit einem sehr kratzigen Klang ist sie so etwas wie eine modernisierte Version einer Old-School-Blanca, fast wie ein turbogeladener Flamenco aus der Mitte des Jahrhunderts. Die traditionell anmutenden Wirbelköpfe sind für eine einfache Handhabung bearbeitet. Ein wirklich beeindruckendes Instrument.

Although he has been building just outside of Granada, Spain for many years, Andrés Marvi (born in 1956) grew up in Germany where at a young age he picked up the guitar as a player and eventually taught music after his studies ended. His interest in building guitars was solidified in 1984 (one year before he successfully completed his final apprenticeship examination as a luthier) when he took part in a course in guitar-making held by José Romanillos. Today, his guitars are in demand worldwide and are used by many top players, including classical greats Aniello Desiderio, Graham Anthony Devine and Goran Krivokapic. The most prominent flamenco artist to have played on Marvi's guitars is none other than the great Gerardo Núñez.
