Hermanos Camps "FL11C Negra" SP/IN

The Hermanos Camps “FL11C Negra” is a new cutaway electroacoustic flamenco guitar with a solid spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides, made in the Camps family workshop in Girona, Spain.

An Electroacoustic Flamenco Negra with Cutaway

The FL11C Negra is an electroacoustic flamenco guitar with cutaway which plays and sounds great either acoustically or amplified. Materials include a solid spruce top, solid Indian rosewood for the back and sides and an ebony fingerboard, and for the electronics a Fishman Flex Blend (this system uses an exclusive amplification system with six independent saddles that ensures a perfect balance of every string, and a digital tuner).

Typical Hermanos Camps Quality

Typical of the instruments from Hermanos Camps, the FL11C Negra is cleanly built with near-perfect fit and finish, incredibly comfortable to play and lightly built for an authentic flamenco feel. Fantastic value for the price.

A Family Workshop in Girona Since 1945

For players seeking a traditional-style Spanish classical or flamenco guitar, these instruments by Hermanos Camps simply can’t be topped. The workshop was founded in 1945 by Juan Camps Coll in Banyoles, in the Catalan province of Girona, and is run today by his sons, the brothers Jordi and Javier Camps, who learned everything from their father from a very early age. All of their guitars are built in their own workshop in Girona.

Lightweight Build, Easy Setup, Clean Fit and Finish

Jordi and Javier are focused on how to ensure that their guitars have a lightweight yet solid build, with an incredibly comfortable low and easy setup and precise attention to an ultra-clean “fit and finish”. Of course tone quality and balance are the ultimate concern, and we are extremely proud to say that these are among our better Spanish-made classical and flamenco guitars.

Primera Flamenco Guitars Certified by Manuel Granados

For their Primera flamenco models, the brothers have collaborated with acclaimed flamenco performer and pedagogue Manuel Granados, who tests and certifies each Primera before it leaves the workshop – with primary emphasis on the lightest but solid build possible and a true flamenco action, with just the right amount of sizzle from controlled fret buzz.

Tradition and Innovation

The guitars are built according to the traditional Spanish methods going back to Antonio de Torres, the father of the modern guitar. But the Camps workshop has always pursued innovation too – Juan Camps was forever experimenting with new building techniques, and today’s guitars include modern touches such as a truss rod inside the neck and, on their electroacoustic models, an amplification system with six independent saddles.
