The Granada luthier Rene Baarslag, born in Heerlen, Holland, came to Granada to study flamenco, and became interested in Granada's guitar making scene. He apprenticed with Antonio Marin Montero, and also spent some time in Normandy working with Robert Bouchet.
This exceptional guitar sounds as beautiful as it looks. It has a very sweet tone with a great deal of projection and punch. The design elements are exquisite.
