hhmusic -> Good luthiers in Sevilla (Jan. 31 2014 15:15:17)

Hi all, I may be spending some time in Sevilla soon, and wanted to look up a few good luthiers. Of course, there's Francisco Barba. But do any of the excellent builders who frequent here know of any others there? Anders, maybe you have a suggestion? Thanks in advance - HH

BARBA!!



Morante -> RE: Good luthiers in Sevilla (Feb. 2 2014 15:25:24)

Barba is semi-retired: his sons do most of the work. Ask in the Tourist Office for a list of guitar makers: it will surprise you.



beltri -> RE: Good luthiers in Sevilla (Feb. 2 2014 21:23:40)

Fernando Rodriguez, Felipe Diaz....and in a small town called Gilena...Jesus de Jimenez

Hadn't thought to ask in the tourist office, but will try that.

Was hoping for recommendations of builders that some of the players or builders here had high opinions of. Beltri, have you played guitars from Fernando Rodriguez and Felipe Diaz? Haven't heard of them, but will look them up.

Have heard of and seen quite a few second hand guitars from Jesus de Jimenez but never played them. Has anyone here played one?

Thanks all for your input. HH

Just found una entrevista con Fernando Rodriguez.

Apparentely he's a loyal admirer of the style of Barba. Maybe his guitars are more affordable versions of a Barba? (Last I exchanged an email with Barba his blancas were 6900 Euros,)

OK, I may be the only one interested in this, but in case anyone else is...

I found Fernando Rodriguez's website:

http://www.guitarrasfernandorodriguez.com/#/INICIO

Which had two videos of Pedro Sierra playing one of his guitars.



A little much reverb in the recording. But I'm def. going to check out this builder when in Sevilla.



johnnefastis -> RE: Good luthiers in Sevilla (Feb. 16 2014 8:15:37)

Check out Jesus de Jiminez

Really nice guitars and guy. Just outside of Seville.

He used to be on Facebook a lot so you may be able to arrange something there.

Let us know what you find. Good luck.

Cheers

Look up Francisco Morales 'el Pulga' who teaches at the Taller Flamenco on Calle Peral; he pretty much knows everything happening with the guitar in Sevilla -- and if you do, please say hello from Jared in New York.



hhmusic -> RE: Good luthiers in Sevilla (May 6 2014 2:14:34)

Jared, thanks for the tip, and sorry to be so late getting back. I'll definitely stop in and look for him, and will tell him you said hello. BTW, did you ever sell that Raya? Trying to sell a few myself, but was curious.
