[Profile]
Born in 1986 in La Coruña, a beautiful port city in Galicia, northwest Spain. He studied architecture, but was bored by the constant work of drafting at his desk, and gradually became more and more interested in the work that comes from being in direct contact with wood. His deep interest in music and instrument construction became unquenchable, and in 2009 he took a summer course in guitar making with Jean Pierre Sardin in Barcelona, and decided to pursue instrument making as his profession. In the summers of 2010-2012, he attended a course with master craftsman José Luis Romanillos in Sigüença, where he learned to make vihuelas and traditional Spanish guitars. It was a decisive influence for him.
In 2013, he moved to Amberes, Belgium, where he completed a course in instrument restoration at La Escuele Internacional de Luteria de Amberes (ILSA), and began teaching at the same school while developing his own production activities.
Currently, he has moved his workshop to Spain, where he continues to make instruments. The delicate construction that he inherited from his mentor, Romanillos, with its uncompromising attention to detail, stylish design, and appealing tone based on traditional Spanish construction methods, makes him unique among young Spanish craftsmen, and his reputation has been growing worldwide in recent years.
[About Custom Models]
In addition to his regular lineup, he also flexibly responds to the needs of his clients with custom models. This model is a 7-string classical guitar made at the request of a customer.
The body shape is based on the Torres ‛La Leona' model by Madrid master craftsman Marcelino Lopez, but the rosette, head shape, and other details are completely original to this model by Pablo Otero. The entire guitar is finished in a delicate and lustrous shellac, creating a beautiful fusion of classic and modern styles.
AURA also accepts orders for custom models made by overseas makers. We will consult with you on the size and shape of the guitar as well as the selection of wood to ensure that your request is met as closely as possible.
If you are looking for a guitar that is uniquely yours, or if you would like to have one made to your favorite specifications by your favorite maker, please feel free to contact us.
