Handmade spanish guitars

Deeply rooted in the old spanish tradition of guitarmaking, my passion is to craft beautifully made and unique classic guitars that will last a lifetime. From my workshop in Copenhagen I spend hours each day experimenting with wood and techniques, perfecting each guitar to fulfill its purpose and the needs of the guitarist. 

I’m very proud to share that I was awarded 3rd Prize in the Classical Guitar Category at the VIII Antonio Marín Montero Guitar Building Competition in Granada, Spain (July 30 – August 1, 2025). This event is one of the most prestigious celebrations of guitar craftsmanship, and it was an incredible honor to have my work recognized by such an esteemed jury.

I’m also excited to mention that my guitars are now available through Guitar Salon International (GSI)
