Presentation from Buenos Aires!
Dear All. After a lot of time of reading this forum, I got registered. First of all, I have to apologize about my English. I promise I will try to write what I think, the most properly I can.
My name is Nahuel, I’m from Argentina and, of course, a flamenco lover. I play flamenco on the guitar since 2 years, but classical since 10. I live in Buenos Aires nowadays, in the north area.
Regarding guitars, I’ve got two. One of them is a “La Alpujarra”, model 85. This guitar comes from a factory called Zagerth Hermanos. Their guitars are not 100% handcrafted, but they sound really cool. Of course this is not a “flamenco” guitar, but I have made some modifications on it, and now is much more playable, and sound brighter.
The another one is a Blanca, from an Argentinian constructor, made from german spruce, maple (Arce Flameado), Ebano and cedar. This guitar has disappointed me, not for the sound, but for the construction.
I will post some photos.
Well, nothing else by now. I will be reading a lot and sharing my experience!
