Description
The “La Cañada” series of guitars is a collaborative effort between master luthier Edmund Blochinger and Wolfgang Jellinghaus of the “Milestones” guitars which offer a variety of period-style replica guitars of iconic makers from the 18th and 19th centuries. Blochinger has studied, measured and evaluated several original Torres instruments over the years and felt it was a great opportunity to take two of his Torres plans to Jellinghaus for the purposes of creating two unique models – one based on a first-epoch Torres (FE 17 – ex Tarrega) and the other on a second epoch Torres from 1888 (SE 115 – ex Pujol). The plantillas and structural details are considerably different from one another and offer two distinct experiences of playing a contemporary guitar built in two of the great classic, vintage styles. Hand-built to Blochinger’s specifications in Jellinghaus’ small facility in China, these are small-production, concert-level instruments made with select and beautiful materials, French polished finish, and offered with either “antiqued” look or “new” look. At this price point these are a great value for the serious student or concert player on a limited budget.excellent and allows almost every passionate guitarist to purchase an instrument that meets the highest demands.
