This guitar was built by Spanish luthier Darío García, who won Third Prize at the seventh Antonio Marin Montero Guitar Making Competition held in Granada, Spain in July/August, 2024 for his cedar classical. It's made with a dark sitka spruce top (almost looks like cedar) and a lovely set of Indian rosewood for the back and sides. It's a lightly made guitar with a springy, bouncy attack - it's a true, traditional southern-Spanish style guitar all the way. Internally, Darío has used a traditional seven-fan strutting with a small cross reinforcement under the bridge. Playability-wise, the notes really bounce out with great ease, there's a "plumpness" in every note from the trebles to the basses. It's really a very satisfying guitar to play especially for someone looking for the full richness that a loose spruce top can produce. Very impressive instrument overall - it's beautifully made and sound/playablilty are superb.
