Pablo Requena is originally from Malaga and worked for many years in Lewes; now in Plumpton Green. This is a very traditional, beautifully-crafted fan-strutted instrument with a full, deep bass voice and clear singing treble. Although Pablo makes more modern construction guitars too, the decoration of this one is also a return to traditional design.
This is a simply delightful guitar to play; so much tonal variety, lovely balance, good sustain and comfort in playing .... super!Pablo Requena - Click here to find out more about this maker
