Producing fine handcrafted Spanish style classical guitars is a centuries old luthiers secret and although to some, a guitar is a guitar, those in the know, including our luthiers, will point to significant differences in the disciplines of making nylon strung guitars & steel strung guitars.
For that reason Tanglewood have established a small handcraft workshop where 4 luthiers now only work producing electro classical guitars for them. This small team are well versed in Spanish classical instrument production and take pride in every instrument they produce.
