Guitar maker Amsterdam
This is Marc Sambola, a Catalan guitarist. I met him a couple of years ago at Casa Luthier in Barcelona where he used to work. Nowadays he is a full time musician. He works as a composer, arranger, teacher and guitarist. He writes music for theatre plays, like for instance El Projecte dels Bojos or arrangements like Le Llaman Copla. He can be listened to in Ruta D’Hivern, small concerts in private houses, every Friday in Barcelona, together with singer Mariona Castillo.
Otto Vowinkel is a household name in the classical guitar world; a renowned luthier with customers all over the world.
His instruments are physically light, easy to play, ultra-responsive and very powerful. His guitars have outstanding tonal qualities, evenness in sound colour and a perfect intonation.
Otto blogs about making guitars, guitarists who play his instruments, festivals he visits and ‘his’ guitar series Meesters op de Gitaar. He also writes about guitar maintenance.
