I recommend Bernal. I've owned two and played at least twenty, some are better than others but the standard is high even of the lesser ones. I personally haven't played one that I thought was a 'lemon' but they could exist. I've been to the 'factory' it is not a factory in the true sense of the word just a very organised large worshop building several guitars at once, there is no outsourcing. They are good for the money. In the lower end market €1000 to €1500 they are hard to beat. They are true flamenco guitars, good playability, good flamenco sound and attack that's why many are played in Andalucia. I would also recommend Sanchis Lopez in this price range. As with ALL guitars they need to be tried first to see if YOU like it!
