Overview
Overview
José Ortega was taught by his father Juan, together with Benito Ferrer, the founder of the Ferrer dynasty in Granada and luthier of Andrés Segovias first concert guitar. A typical feature of Ortega’s work are the very small sides, which can be found on only one Torres guitar from 1890 (SE 04). The case was specially made for this instrument and the nacre marquetry possibly imported from the area of Markneukirchen. The famous spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca owned an Ortega guitar, which is kept in a museum in Granada. The instrument is in “restored original state” - which means: great importance has been attached to not change the substance. The guitar impresses with an extraordinary richness of tone-colours. The tuning machines are made by Sloane.

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.Look all products of the collection -
