The classical flamenco guitars built in the city of Granada, Spain are famous around the world for their quality and longevity. In records dating back to the 1500s, violeros (luthiers) established an enduring tradition of guitar making that has spanned the generations since. The quality of the instruments is attributed to well seasoned wood due to the dry air of the region, allowing the material to retain acoustic qualities. But most important is the dynasty of skilled craftsman that even now work away in small shops dotted across the province.
