FLAMENCO GUITAR BY JUAN FABIÁN LABELLA
2.100 €
Flamenco guitar built by Juan Fabián Labella, a luthier born in Aldeire (Granada), who from a very early age felt a great restlessness and passion for the world of guitars. In 1995 he began to build his own instruments after an stage with Jesús and Manuel Bellido. His building method, although refined when referring to the acoustic results, is entirely manual.
With this aim, and using the best materials –among which we can find the cypress of Granada, really difficult to find nowadays– he barely uses mechanical tools, a fact that, although it lengthens the construction timings, gives the opportunity to dominate each and every one of the steps in the process of construction, making his guitars unique pieces.

In 1995 he began to build his own instruments after an stage with Jesús and Manuel Bellido. His building method, although refined when referring to the acoustic results, is entirely manual.

The selection of woods used for this instrument is: top quality german pine spruce that has been under cure for several years for the soundboard, and cypress of Granada of extraordinary quality and beauty for the body (sides and back) with straight and uniform grain.
Thanks to the selection of woods used on this instrument, its sound is exquisite to the ears of both lovers and professionals of flamenco, offering exceptional depth and power on the bass strings, together with brilliant and crystalline trebles, as well as a great compensation between bass and treble, offering its typical and unmistakable sound.
This guitar offers perfect comfort on both of the guitarist’s hands.
The pulsation of this guitar is of medium tension with the strings at perfect height for performance.
The guitar is in an excellent condition, it is completely original and has not been under any kind of repair
