Scharpach Guitars - THE SCHARPACH FLAMENCO 1912

CUSTOM-MADE FLAMENCO GUITAR

The design of the Flamenco1912 was inspired by Pablo Picasso. Picasso was a great lover of the flamenco music. His ‘silent’ instrument resembled no sculpture ever seen before. His first model in 1912 was made from cardboard. In 1914, the artist recreated this fragile paper construction in a more permanent and durable sheet metal form. This exceptional piece of art was made for the MoMa in New York in 1912. Key elements of the guitar flamenco style are the headstock and the sound hole inlay that allude to this fine work of art by Pablo Picasso.

Furthermore, the guitar is built in the style of Santos Hernandez, one of the great guitar makers who lived and worked in Spain in the early 20th century.

CUSTOM BUILD FLAMENCO GUITARS

Vicente Santiago: “As a flamenco player, I always need the instrument to respond and not to be wondering if at some point the sound of the guitar will break. The sound of the Flamenco1912 is just great: warm, balanced and with a lot of colours, no matter if I was playing forte or piano. I liked playing melody lines especially on the high note because I always felt a great harmonic support: somehow I felt there was another instrument accompanying me while playing melodies.”
