Cádiz is a jewel of a place with enormous history. It’s worth visiting for that reason alone. It ain’t cheap, though. The other direction from Malaga and a relatively easy drive is La Herradura, a small fishing village that’s also a jewel of a place. It’s the home of Stephen Hill, who is a very accomplished guitar maker. He’s British, but don’t hold that against him, he’s taught a lot of Spanish makers how to make guitars. He’s also taught a lot of members of the Foro, including Stephen Eden, Stu (who’s been helping you a lot), me, and I’m sure quite few others. He’s the real deal and he speaks English. He might have something on hand for sale, it could be worth contacting him and asking. Due north of La Herradura, less than an hour’s drive, is Granada, home to a god-awful slew of guitar makers. It’s almost impossible to walk down the street without tripping over one. But these are makers, many will not have anything on hand and none will come cheap. And the stores will see you for what you are and you’ll find no bargains, but you will find a lot of guitars. It’s worth going to Granada at least once in your life. You really owe it to yourself to see the place, if you’ve never been. But go for the trip, really I think buying a guitar there should be secondary. I guess I’ve made my feelings about that matter pretty clear on the other thread, so I won’t start, lol.
