Guitarras Pilarte Spanish Acoustic Guitar Shop

When we think about handmade acoustic guitars, we think about how the old fashioned luthiers use to make them. Fancy and expensive machinery were not used to make great sounding guitars, it was all left to the skill of a master luthier. Fine acoustic stringed instruments have been around for centuries and until now they're being manufactured at a large scale through pure machinery. Nothing can compare, even less, replace the hand work of a master guitar builder. As unique as the solid wood being worked with is, the guitar has to be given a unique and personal treatment.

Guitarras Pilarte is a small guitar shop that specializes in Spanish handmade acoustic guitars. Based in Masaya, Nicaragua, Guitarras Pilarte has the accessibility of obtaining various types of exotic woods to use for their handmade acoustic instruments. This small shop takes pride in making unique stringed instruments that please the eyes as well as the ears. With 3 generations of guitar making skills, Guitarras Pilarte has mastered the hand-making process that leads to a great sounding guitar.  Having connections in Miami, Florida, Luis Pilarte has been able to reach a broader market and, at the same time, gained the ability to obtain a variety of precious woods and materials from around the world to use on his handmade acoustic guitars.

Online selling platforms such as eBay, Amazon, and Craigslist have made it possible for Luis Pilarte to show his beautiful and unique work to a broader public. Since the shop is small, they are not able to produce enough acoustic guitars to give them a decent presence in the handmade acoustic guitar market. Slowly but surely, these guitars will have a respectable brand name that will entice many aspiring guitarists. The guitar prices are very reasonable, especially since they are made using all solid woods with many man hours of work behind them. They use exotic guitar woods that U.S. guitar companies charge a very hefty premium for. This is the major advantage that Guitarras Pilarte has over many guitar builders around the world, a wide supply of high quality exotic woods.

The best thing about these guitars, on top of their top notch quality of a sound, is that they are all uniquely made in comparison to the next. You won't have to worry about bringing the same looking type of guitar in any kind of guitar session. In fact, yours will stand out in the crowd, making you the center of attention. On top of their great look, they all have a unique type of sound as well; it all depends on the wood type and quality being used. It is very hard to find a shop like this, making fine instruments and selling them for a low price. Get your hands on one today to see what all the buzz is about.
