Description

His current instruments have a very interesting and compelling back story. Although he prefers to build each instrument with a slightly different and unique aesthetic, he still refers to them collectively as the "Simbiosis" model, which is a structural system he has developed that fuses together various elements from Jose Ramirez I, Torres, and his own design. The top is made of German spruce and interestingly the back and sides are made of cypress grown a few hundred yards from his workshop at the Mirador de la Reina garden inside the Alhambra Palace. The interior of the guitar is filled with handwritten notes and details by Diaz himself. Overall very striking with a strong individuality to the design. Soundwise, it is nothing other than a southern Spanish style flamenco, with great bark and a dry, "woody" sound - very clear in all registers. It is the kind of guitar that could be played with great effect in literally any flamenco setting - solo, with singer, with dancers, etc. This is a fine example from one of Granada's longest-building and most established flamenco builders.
