Overview

Antonio Marín Montero was born in Granada in 1933. In 1957, he joined master Pérez’s workshop, and two years later, in 1959, his father advised him to visit Eduardo Ferrer for whom he worked until opening his own workshop. A milestone in Antonio Marin Montero’s career was his meeting with the French luthier Robert Bouchet in the 1970s. The two artists became friends and built several guitars together. The contrast between Marin Montero’s Spanish building system and Robert Bouchet’s very particular bracing construction was a great source of inspiration for Antonio Marin Montero, and he continued to build a model with the ”Robert Bouchet” bracing throughout his career. Today, Antonio Marin Montero is one of the most sought-after Spanish guitar makers.

This gorgeous instrument from 1986 with the number 366 is an enticing instrument. It features a traditional 5-fan bracing, that supports a solid spruce top and. As a result, the top is impressively responsive and produces a radiant tone full of compelling overtones and sustain. Montero’s rich and warm tone is immediately recognizable, and so is the overall aesthetic of the guitar. The back and sides are made of a exquisite, Brazilian rosewood (CITES certified) which has a light coloured tone. This pre-loved guitar has a professionaly repaired crack on the bass side of the lower bout. Nevertheless, the guitar is in great condition and ready to be played in any playing situation.

Antonio Marin Montero 1986 No.366 Classical Guitar Review

While this guitar is sold, these are ready for you

  • Classical Guitars

    The classical guitar, with its soft nylon strings and characteristic timbre, has become a symbol of chamber music, Spanish tradition, and concert repertoire. Its modern form was shaped by Antonio de Torres in the 19th century, setting the standard for the body, fan bracing, and the 65-centimeter scale length that are still used today. Instruments in this category open up a rich palette from the refined Romantic miniatures of Tárrega to the majestic concertos of Rodrigo. Here you will find guitars that preserve historical continuity and at the same time inspire new interpretations.
