Hear Petra Polácková (Czech Republic) perform Abendlied by Johann Kaspar Mertz (1806-1856) on an Antonio Marin Montero classical guitar.

Overview: Recently retired, Antonio Marin Montero is considered by many professionals to be the premiere Spanish maker of fine handmade classical guitars. We have had the honor to represent this great master for over thirty years. A former protege of the great French luthier, Robert Bouchet, Marin's concert guitars are a unique musical blend of Northern European and Spanish guitar making traditions.

Marin's guitars have a deep, bell like sound; are very precise; have powerful trebles, midrange and bass, excellent sustain, balance, and separation of voices, a quick response to a particularly wide variety of color and attack, and an unusually comfortable neck and action set up. In short, these magnificent concert guitars are an inspiration to hear and great fun to play.

Highly sought after around the world, a rare new Marin such as this obtained directly from this great master is cause for celebration. (Learn more about this classical guitar maker).
