Exclusive, top level flamenco guitar developed by renowed flamenco guitarist Jerónimo Maya, luthier Lazarides and La Sonanta. Played by Jerónimo Maya on his class DVD and his latest CD 'Como Soy', built by master luthier Lazarides. Top from old aged 1st grade German spruce, back and sides from gorgeous cypress. The unique, slim ergonomic neck greatly facilitates playing thanks to a larger support base of the thumb. Since Jerónimo and ourselves were so impressed, even though we knew Lazarides had limited capacity to construct only a few of these flamenco guitars each year, we simply had to offer this rare opportunity to guitarists all over the world.

It all started when Jerónimo Maya was at La Sonanta to discuss the recordings of his DVD classes. When trying some of our guitars, Jerónimo was excited about the Lazarides guitars. After playing for hours and hours, he suggested many improvements. When sharing all this information with us, we decided to bring Jerónimo and Lazarides together. Inspired and thrilled by the recommendations of a professional flamenco guitarist, Lazarides started to redesigned his flamenco guitar. We had to postpone the recording session several times enabling Jerónimo Maya to use this particular flamenco guitar on his DVD classes and CD recordings. Since Jerónimo and ourselves were so impressed, even though we knew Lazarides had limited capacity to construct only a few of these guitars each year, we simply had to offer this rare opportunity to guitarists all over the world.


Vassilis integrated the bracing patterns and body parts of a historical Arabic khitar, a new partially flat neck, a modified top and a lower string action. She is exactly as a flamenco guitar should sound. Vassilis succeeded in developing a flamenco guitar that, already in new condition, has the enchanting chitarra sound of an old Esteso. A lightweight flamenco with a top level ergonomic playability, an extremely quick response, a perfect balance between beautiful dark basses and singing trebles, very tasteful inlays and an excellent French polish finish. One of the most beautiful flamenco guitars, an instrument for the most demanding guitarist. Jerónimo Maya signed the label of this guitar in the top right corner.

The 4th release in the flamenco guitar master series with the lineal descendant of the legend Ramon Montoya, the fabulous flamenco guitarist, Jerónimo Maya.

 

This could be one of the biggest flamenco productions: 194 pages A4 sheet music, 256 minutes double layer DVD in Spanish and English, over 2 years production time.

 

In these classes, available in book, DVD and online streaming format, Jerónimo Maya invites us, to learn his Caño Roto flamenco guitar techniques and playing. Jeronimo guides you through his specific techniques of rasgueados, picado, arpeggio, legado, the rare 'el Cantor' and 'Cejilla'. Jeronimo not only demonstrates these techniques separately, but also in practice, by playing 4 complete CD compositions, replayed slowly on a split screen with close ups of the left and right hands and a partial dynamic on-screen compas. The demonstrated Cd compositions are 'Un Cacho de la Luna' (granaína, bulerías), 'Palacio Real' (soleá), 'La Cotorra' (bulerías) and 'A Tropico' (Aire de Samba, bulerías). The accompanying book provides authentic transcriptions, written by Max Herzog in close collaboration with Jeronimo in both standard music notation and tablature....
