DESCRIPTION & CONTENTS
Considered one of the best Classical Guitar Making Publications Orfeo Magazines are devoted to Classical guitar, Classical Guitar makers, and the culture surrounding this fascinating world.
Very interesting articles and interviews with the most famous and admirable worldwide guitar makers. The author Alberto Martinez travels to different countries. And in these magazine books, we have the chance to see and know about the work of prominent local guitar makers as well as the most important historical guitar makers and classical guitars ever made.
Outstanding photos are included made by the own Alberto Martinez who himself is a very successful professional photographer. We are lucky to be able to enjoy these high-quality books made by a person who joins his profession as a photographer with another passion we share, classical guitar making.
