Spanish Guitar Building Course

The Spanish guitar building course offers a unique opportunity to learn the art of lutherie from renowned masters. This course not only teaches you the essential techniques to create a guitar from scratch but also immerses you in the rich culture and musical traditions of Spain.

What is a Spanish Guitar Building Course?

A Spanish guitar building course focuses on crafting classical and flamenco guitars. Participants learn to select wood, cut, assemble, and fine-tune their own instrument. While the course covers theory, it places a strong emphasis on hands-on practice, all under the guidance of expert luthiers.

The Overall Experience of the Course

What sets this course apart is its holistic approach. It goes beyond the technical aspects of making a guitar. It also includes the analysis of guitars from Solera Flamenca’s private collection. Students have the unique opportunity to hear and study these instruments in concert, performed by renowned artists.

Who are the luthiers leading the course?

We’ve already confirmed two editions of the course for this year, which will be led by Francisco Sanchez and Juan Antonio Barba. Both artisans were present in the 2024 edition, and participants have said it was an incredible experience.  
Aside from the teacher, we have a team of professionals on hand in each course to help out the students. This way, we can adapt the tasks to suit each student’s experience and particular needs. 

Location and Atmosphere: The Course Setting

Set against the stunning backdrop of Montserrat Massif, this course offers an inspiring environment. The natural beauty and tranquility of the location provide not only a perfect learning space but also a deep connection to the tradition and culture that surrounds the Spanish guitar.

Spanish Guitar Building Course Details: What to Expect?

The course spans 12 days, during which participants learn everything from the basics to advanced lutherie techniques. Each day features intensive hands-on sessions and theoretical talks, allowing students to tailor their learning experience to their own pace and interests.

Additional Benefits of the Course

Beyond the technical learning, the course includes full accommodation, transportation, and meals. Students get to savor local cuisine and experience life in Spain, making this experience more than just a course—it’s a cultural immersion.

How This Course Stands Out from Others?

Unlike other guitar-building courses, this one stands out for its cultural focus and direct connection to the flamenco tradition. The presence of masters like Francisco Sánchez and Juan Barba adds unparalleled value to the experience.
