Born in 1981, Daisuke Kuriyama began making guitars on his own while studying at Tokyo Zokei University, and joined a major music store in 2003, where he worked in the repair department for over 10 years. He joined a major music store in 2003 and worked in the repair department for over 10 years, where he had the opportunity to study many famous instruments from Japan and other countries, and this is where his sensitivity to tone developed. During his time with the company, he was introduced to the maker Kaoru Ono, and in 2010 he began receiving direct instruction at Ono's workshop. Since becoming independent, he has been producing extremely precise and high quality guitars at a rate of about 6 to 8 per year. His works are based on the traditional Spanish construction methods of Torres, Domingo Esteso, Marcelo Barbero I, and others, and they all reproduce the taste and sound of good old Spanish guitars. In 2020, his interview and instruments were featured in Orfeo Magazine No.15 published by Camino Verde, a French publisher.
Orfeo Magazine No.15 features an interview with Kaoru Ono（Masahiro Tanabe, Alberto Nejime Ohno, Marin Nejime, Yuichi Shimizu, Daisuke Kuriyama）.

[Description]
We are pleased to announce the arrival of a new Domingo Esteso Model 90, 2023, made by Daisuke Kuriyama.
It has been a long time since Kuriyama has made an Esteso model, and in fact, this is the model he has worked on continuously since the beginning of his production career. Domingo Esteso is one of the greatest masters of the Madrid School, along with Santos Hernandez, as a craftsman in the Manuel Ramirez workshop, and Esteso's tone is one of the great references of the Spanish guitar. Inheriting the sound of the original, Kuriyama has created a fresh Spanish guitar.
The string tension is slightly stronger, with a hard, slightly dry sound that is very appealing. The overtones are rich yet moderately restrained, and the clarity and balance of each string is exquisitely tuned. The tone is clean and elegant, as is typical of the brand, and its expressiveness is very sensitive and versatile, both in the weak and strong tones, as well as in their dynamic variations.
