I agree with Patrick that Conde is most distinctive. However, I would also mention Felix Manzanero. You can't mistake that Bart Simpson haircut. Pretty cool!

Conde is definately most distinctive, simple and understated and I like the Bart Simpson haircut too, Reyes is easily recognised but strange, It's like two Condes proped up against each other at an odd angle.
For me, Gerundino's the boss, I'd go as far as to say it's Regal.

Cheers
Jim.

I really like Reyes'. It almost resembles a crown. Perhaps for the KING of the flamenco guitar makers?

You know who's also is very nice? Aaron Green's. Very elegant.

Maldonado's is also pretty much easy to pick out.
