buying a guitar in Northern Spain 

I know the south is the heartland of guitar in Spain, but I am travelling to Spain in March 2008 and only have time to visit the north, barcelona, and valencia. I would like to purchase a decent flamenco guitar from a local maker. My budget is unfortunate...probably maximum 500 Euros. Could anyone offer some advice as to how I would find luthiers/reputable sellers in those areas? From Santiago to Valencia basically, excluding (reluctantly) Madrid, Seville, Cordoba, and Granada.
Thanks to anyone who can offer any help!

Maybe you can get a good deal in one of the Valencia factories. A friend of mine got a nice Sanchíz directky from the factory for a good price.

Anywhere else it will be expensive and it might be better to buy in some other country

In Valencia I would recommend the Hermanos Sanchis Lopez but I believe their entry level flamenco starts at 850Euros.

Guitarras Hermanos Sanchis Lopez
Calle del Foc, 32
46025, (Valencia)
96 340 35 49

My next choice would be Amalio Burguet.

Amalio Burguet
Calle Senda de les Ánimes s/n
Polígono Industrial Catarroja
46470 Catarroja (Valencia)
96 126 34 75
