Client Reviews

Hello Ed; The Vicente Carrillo Alegrias Negra is a beautiful guitar and everything I was looking for in regard to tone and quality. It has a sweet resonant sound that really makes the guitar sing and a pure flamenco sound as well. It makes it a great fit for a guitarist who plays classical and flamenco at a great price. Thank you for your quick responses and all your help in buying this guitar. I would welcome the chance to do business with you again! Louie-Birmingham, AL

Hi Eduardo,

MyRamirez String Winderarrived today in perfect condition.

Essential and Elegant.Like everything with the Ramirez name on it! Best, Michael N Y

Dear Ed,I hope this finds you well. I just wanted to let you know, I received my Prudencio Saez 33 a few days ago, and I am impressed with the sound and beauty of this instrument. I am starting to play Classical Guitar again, after a few years hiatus, and I could not be happier. Your attention to details, genuine concern toward my needs, and great customer service is exceptional. As we talked, the fact that you also are a guitar player and loves the instrument makes a big difference. I will certainly recommend Guitars from Spain to my friends and acquaintances looking for a great guitar and an exceptional support. Thanks again!! Luis Pina

Hi Ed
I love the requinto guitar! The package arrived on time and in good condition. It played and sounded greatonce it settled downThanks very much for checking to see how things were going. PS Requinto 201 C/E Doug Cohen Va.

Ed -My PS G-11 arrived in perfect condition today. My wife said the FedEx driver wasverycareful handling the box. The guitar looks great. It is a mile above my old student model. As inexpert as I am, I can tell with just a few notes that this is a great instrument: The sound is balanced across all the strings and frets. Bass is strong but not boomy. This guitar provides me a wonderful incentive to improve my playing. Thanks for your advice, and super guitar!Best regards, Adam Carr, Potts Camp MS

Hi Eduardo, I am having a great time with my new Prudencio Saez 18 Flamenco Negra. The guitar sounds great with a balanced dark and resonant timbre, alternative to the traditional bright Flamenco Timbre you find in Blancas. The time, patience and dedication you gave me at your studio ,helped me out choosing this outstanding guitar among the very selected and unique inventory you have in terms of quality, brands and variety of sounds, was the key factor for the great choice I made. Thanks for everything, Alvaro Jose Franco. FL

I recently purchased a Jose Ramirez Flamenco guitar from Eduardo at his studio in Boca Raton Fl. I couldn\'t be more pleased with this purchase and the guitar is so enjoyable to play, I seem to loose track of time every time I pick this instrument up. I\'ve been unsuccessfully searching for a quality guitar reasonably priced here in south Florida for quite some time. Finally I found \"Guitars from Spain\". What really impressed me is every guitar Eduardo has in inventory is an exceptional instrument. After seeing a couple of the guitars I knew one was going home with me, just a matter of which one. Thanks, Bryan Phillips

On a recent trip toEurope, I had the opportunity to play a Paco Castillo guitar. It is one of the finest guitars I have ever played. They are made inSpainby Lucas and Juan Julia.
They are primarily sold inEurope. There is only one guitar dealer in theUnited States. Guitars from Spain, in Boca Raton, Florida, just started bringing the Paco Castillo guitar line to the U.S.
I ordered and received the guitar this past Monday. The guitar plays and looks wonderful. Interesting, the owner of Guitars fromSpain, was traveling through the west and stopped at the house. His name isEduardo Macadarand we spent time playing the guitar. We had a great time. GFSsells Classical and Flamenco guitars. Eduardo is truly a master at playing the guitar. I would highly recommend his company if your are looking for a classical or flamenco guitar. P Castillo 203C/e Rich Qualls

\"Hello Eduardo. I recently purchased yourUltimate Guitar Protector for my Esteve 8F, and I am very pleased with it. My primary reason for purchasing the Ultimate Guitar Protector was to have worry free handling of my new flamenco guitar. Another big plus I noticed is that the guitar is much easier to hold in the right thigh / upright position I prefer using that is similar to some flamenco guitar players like legendary Diego del Gastor. Ultimate Guitar Protector should be a standard accessory for classical, flamenco and acoustic guitar players. I will be ordering more Ultimate Guitar Protectors for my other guitars, and appreciate your fast and professional service. Best regards, Daniel Gastelu,

Hi Ed!
Received the guitar. A beautiful guitar. With powerful bass, timbre clear and balanced between bass and treble. Very soft to the touch. The finish is flawless.I appreciate all your efforts. Is very good buy with accessories .When you visit Brazil, come to me that I will have the pleasure of welcoming you in Curitiba, a beautiful city in southern Brazil. Thank You PS G-11Pedro Cesar

Hello Eduardo, The guitar arrived today in excellent condition with a perfect action height, and sounds great. Thanks, Aaron Muirhead. PS 34

Hello Ed.Thanks for following up.I do love the guitar , looks beautiful and sounds great. I am very happy.Cheers. Kamel Zennia PS 59 C/E

Hey Eduardo! Sorry it took time..The guitar sounds GREAT ....love playing it. I have done about 10 gigs with it. It sounds full, every string comes through will, the playability is nice, Super impressed with the LR BAGGS best pickups I\'ve heard. I just hope this guitar last me along time. I don\'t see myself changing for years to come..(unless I get very rich )...so thanks again ! Lucas PS 80 C/E

I recently purchased an Esteve classical guitar, with a cedar/carbon fiber top from Guitars from Spain that out performs so many handmade guitars, and paid 1/2 of the price that you would pay for a handmade Spanish guitar. The tone, sustain and balance of that guitar are just about as great as you can get. I highly recommend Guitars From Spain to anyone looking for nylon string guitars as well as the best of guitar accessories at very reasonable prices. Islay Rodriguez Est 7C/B

I love my new Flamenca Blanca, the price was great and the customer service was amazing! Eduardo really knows his stuff - I would not have been able to find an instrument like this in any of the local music stores. Highly recommended! Thank you J Goldstein

Hello Eduardo,Thank you, I must say that the entire experience with yourself and Guitars From Spain has been awesome. Answering a business line as you\'re about to perform before 250 people, now that\'s service. I was very impressed with your genuine concern that I choose the right guitar for my experience level and type of music played, the courtesy and respect you deliver is appreciated. The prompt shipment and on time delivery as promised was refreshing. My beautiful Prudencio Saez PS-34 arrived in perfect condition, it truly is a work of art! The case is luxurious and fits like a glove. The extra strings and other gifts were a pleasant surprise. I would highly recommend Eduardo and Guitars From Spain to everybody, it is the right choice!God Bless,David G Brown

As a professional musician and collector I am very particular about my inventory. I must say my experience with Eduardo GFS was Top Shelf.. Thank You for a wonderful guitar. A Sarraz

I would like to extend my gratitude and thanks to Eduardo at Guitars from Spain for his help over the last 10 years providing me several classical guitars. The selection is top notch from lower priced to magnificent upper level models. Being a Professor of Classical Guitar, The Bourget, Carrillo and Juan Hernandez guitars I bought were all excellent instruments of different characteristics. The hybrid flamenco/classical that I play now, I am thrilled to play all day long. My more than dozen students that have come to Eduardo all are happy with their guitars! I recommend everyone see Eduardo or pick up a guitar from GFSpain. Honestly, he only has quality instruments! I have tried many models that he has. Thanks again, Eduardo!Thomas Glenn Smith, MA
