JOSÉ ROMANILLOS 03 | SOUND of OLD guitars when they were NEW
CustomGuitarVideo.com | It is a valid question: how do we validate the sound of a 150 year old guitar? What did the people hear when this guitar was new or just perfectly broken in? How much do guitars change over the the course of a century? José Romanillos tries to give an answer. José Romanillos became famous by building the guitars for Classical Guitar Virtuoso Julian Bream. He his one of the last icons in Spanish guitar making tradition. His guitars are among the most sought after classical guitars. José wrote numerous books about the Spanish guitar and the man who defined the classical guitar as we know it today, Antonio de Torres. We spent a whole week in Següenza, Spain close to Madrid to document his last guitar. In the first part José talks about how to select wood and the validity of old methods. This is right from the workbench. Spanish "Guitar Making" at its best.
