Sobrinos De Santos Hernandez / Flamenco Guitar, CY-GS, / 1964 / Guitar

The historical importance of Santos Hernandez for the flamenco guitar is considered of equal importance as Antonio Torres (1817–1892) or as important as Antonio Stradivari for the violists. This guitar was made by Feliciano Bayon de la Morena (1922-1997). The link to Santos Hernandez is as follows. Feliciano was born in Madrid, and repaired and restored guitars, before he started to make them in 1959. He married Esperanza Ruiz, the niece of Santos Hernandez's wife Matilde Ruiz Lopez. After the death of Santos Herandez in 1943, Matilde ran the shop, first hiring Marcelo Barbero to finish some guitars her husband had left unfinished. She sold guitars under the label Vda de Santos Hernandez for a while, and then when she took on her nephew, Feliciano, in the 1950s sold them under the label Vda y Sobrinas de Santos Hernandez. After her death in the mid 1960s, Feliciano used the label Sobrinos de Santos Hernandez, which is what the label on this guitar states. This guitar wasmade in 1964. The Santos Hernandez shop still exists, owned by Santos Bayon, Feliciano's son, and is still at the same address shown on the label. The guitar is in despite several repaired cracks in excellent restored condition, all the work was done professionally and the guitar got new varnish, the playwear is minimum, the playability is excellent with low action, The guitar convinces with its powerful sound and typical Spanish character, bright, powerfull and with a good balance for flamenco-style playing, added is the matured character that makes a great difference. Comes with a hard shell case.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
