Guitar maker Amsterdam
This is the new CD of Gustavo Pazos for which I made the 7-string guitar I wrote about in a previous post. It’s “A musical reflection on gaucho traditions such as the milonga, the estilo, the chamarrita and more urban forms like the waltz, tango and the signature sound of Montevideo, the candombe” according to his record company. Congratulations Gustavo!
