Overview

In 1957, Francisco Esteve, Manuel Adalid, and Antonio Monfort founded their own guitar workshop, initiating their venture into instrument crafting. This tradition is continued today by Manuel Adalid Jr., who is dedicated to promoting the ESTEVE brand globally. His approach includes integrating innovative designs and techniques, adapting construction processes to meet international market demands, while preserving the essence of their artisanal tradition. ESTEVE is supported by a team of 52 skilled artisans who share a deep passion for guitar making and boast extensive experience. The company takes pride in each instrument produced, which are celebrated worldwide for their superb sound quality and finish. ESTEVE guitars expertly blend high-quality materials with a harmonious fusion of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary construction methods. Representing the resonance of the Spanish soul, ESTEVE guitars enchant musicians with their sonorous quality, playability, and pure sound, embodying the venerable art of luthiery in each creation.

The Adalid 11 Spanish guitar, crafted entirely from solid woods, exemplifies the rich, full-bodied sound characteristic of traditional Spanish instruments. Featuring a beautifully Spruce top and robust East Indian Rosewood for the back and sides, this guitar offers enhanced volume, richer tones, and greater projection. The ebony fingerboard adds to the guitar's durability and playability. Designed for concert-level performances, the Adalid 11 combines superior quality and affordability, making it an appealing choice for musicians seeking a high-caliber instrument without the high-end price tag. The guitar comes with a Hiscox Pro II "Siccas Edition"

2024 Esteve 11 Spruce 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.
