Andrés Dominguez Guerrero
Andrés Dominguez Guerrero is a maker in Sevilla who was born in Jerez de la Frontera in 1947. As a young man he was drawn to the guitar, becoming first a flamenco guitarist, and then an apprentice of Manuel Ortega. Under his tutelage (1965-1970), Andrés honed his skills, and in 1970 established his own shop. His guitars are based on the designs of Santos Hernandez. The sound he seeks in his guitars is one that is both focused and sweet. As he builds entirely by hand using traditional techniques of construction, his production is limited to about 15 guitars a year.
