beno -> Blanca by Hungarian luthier (Nov. 3 2014 17:58:59)

Hi guys!
I would like to help a friend luthier here in Hungary by introducing his work here. His name is János Baranyai, and he has been working as a fine wood furniture restaurator for a decades, and some years ago he's up to luthiery as well. He's also a classical guitar player and teacher.

This is a cypress/spruce blanca with a 660 scale, a 12hole bridge, Ramirez plantilla, Schaller gears. Strong midrange, and huge volume. I'd say the pulsation is harder than on my Castillo, it's rather closer to the feeling of a Sanchis.

Anybody close to Hungary is welcome for a test.

That looks interesting. For detailed info, especially for individual aspcts, a direct contact would be helpful. It´s also necessary that he speaks English. As I saw, many hungaryans speak German. I could highlight him on my own community.

Maybe you have some further info than just the name of this guitar maker like sound example, number of already produced guitars, available options etc.

Well his full name is János László Baranyai, and He lives in Hegyeshalom, a tiny town in Hungary right next to the Austrian border. He's on facebook (with many fotos of the guitars he made), You can contact him there, or I can even give You his phone number but he hardly speak english as far as I know. He does not have a website yet, but maybe that will change in a while. I think he finished around 20 guitars or so, but I have to ask. I've tried 4 so far, but this is the first flamenco, all were classicals, and all built by different plans and headstocks. He's building a 8strng guitar right now.

He doesn't have a big stock of materials yet, but can acces to fine materials, just take a look at the woods used for this one. So avaible options are wide, it just may took a little time.

I'll make some demo videos as soon as I have some time....

until that I have a video footage of a Hungarian contest: a guy is playing one of his previously built classical guitars:



and here's some other: the one on the right is a Friedrich copy

oh, I didn't even noticed the big plush dogs so far...took this foto from his facebook profile that wasn't meant for commercial purposes I think
Hahaha [:D]




bernd -> RE: Blanca by Hungarian luthier (Nov. 4 2014 19:43:43)

Does the price of the blanca include a hard case? And how many mm is the action at bridge?

I don´t use Facebook in order to their lousy data protection act. Trying to visit him Facebook I think his account is not accessable without registration. So I couldn´t see the other fotos.

Regarding to your guitar, which Castillo model do you have? Blanca or negra and measure of the action at bridge, please? Any sound samples available?

What a beautiful guitar. Nice

I've recorded a short video. The sound was recorded by a simple Sony DSC-WX1 cam, with no editing to the sound:
