{"product_id":"fernando-moreno-2019-rastrojo","title":"Fernando Moreno - 2019 \"Rastrojo\"","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAbout the luthier\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eFernando Moreno builds in Alcalá de Guadaíra, just outside Seville, with roots that reach deeply into the Granada school of guitar making. His path into the craft began while working around the guitar shop of Valeriano Bernal, where Antonio Ariza recognised the quality of his work and encouraged him to build an instrument of his own. Guided initially by Ariza and Juan García Fernández, Moreno later joined the workshop of the Francisco Manuel Díaz family, refining every stage of the building process alongside Víctor Díaz. These formative years established a distinctly Spanish foundation for his work, combining traditional methods with an attentive understanding of what musicians require from an instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe 2019 “Rastrojo” belongs firmly to Fernando Moreno’s traditional flamenco work. His approach to the flamenco guitar draws particularly on the lineage of Santos Hernández and the makers who continued that tradition, with an emphasis on immediacy, definition and a direct connection between the player and the instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eHere, a spruce soundboard is combined with cypress back and sides in the classic flamenco blanca tradition. The restrained construction and French-polished surfaces reflect Moreno’s preference for established Spanish working methods rather than unnecessary complexity. His flamenco concept seeks clear basses alongside warm, well-defined trebles, maintaining articulation and presence while leaving the player ample room to shape colour and dynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe “Rastrojo” therefore represents a particularly direct expression of Moreno’s background: a contemporary flamenco guitar shaped by the workshop traditions of Granada and Andalucía, and by a maker whose work remains closely connected to the practical and musical demands of flamenco players.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe guitar is in excellent condition, showing only minimal wear consistent with careful use and storage. There are no known repairs or damage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54825766125901,"sku":"S19025","price":3490.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/fernando-moreno-2019-rastrojo-16.jpg?v=1790257619","url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/products\/fernando-moreno-2019-rastrojo","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
