01/Conservatory

Master-Luthier Concert Classicals

The instruments that fill recital halls and conservatory studios. Built one at a time by names like Ramirez, Hauser, Kohno, and Smallman — guitars whose serial numbers are themselves a credential.

02/Conservatory

Spanish School

Cordoba, Alhambra, and Conde Hermanos — the lineage that runs from Antonio de Torres through José Ramírez to today's workshops. Authentic Spanish voicing without the master-luthier price tag.

03/Conservatory

Concert-Grade Classical ($3,000+)

Solid spruce or cedar tops, solid Indian or Brazilian rosewood backs, full lattice or fan bracing. The instruments serious students step up to once they outgrow their first solid-wood classical.

04/Conservatory

Student Conservatory ($800–$2,500)

The instruments that get conservatory undergrads through their first juries. Solid-top construction, all-solid options at the upper end, and enough projection to fill a 100-seat recital hall.

05/Conservatory

Flamenco Guitars

Different beast from a classical — cypress backs, lower string action, golpeador (tap plate). Built for percussive playing and the bright, immediate attack flamenco repertoire demands.

06/Conservatory

Cadete & 7/8 Size

Smaller-scale classicals for younger conservatory students or players with shorter reach. Cadete (3/4) and Senorita (7/8) guitars built to the same standards as their full-size counterparts — not toys.
