He shared a tie with the legendary Miguel Rodríguez, and together with Manuel Reyes, they are the watchword of the Cordovan guitar. His instruments are always hand-varnished by himself, and there are many artists who have used and still use his guitars, such as Luis Calderito or Tomatito.
The selection of woods used for this instrument is german pine spruce of exceptional sound quality that has been under a cure that lasted several years for the soundboard, and Indian rosewood of stunning beauty and features for the body (sides and back), both chosen carefully.
