Description:
Pedro de Miguel classical guitar in Jose Ramirez style – this guitar combines excellent craftsmanship, quality materials, years of experience and love for music to an instrument of exceptional quality!
Who is behind the name Pedro de Miguel. The answer is simple: two great guitar makers: Pedro Pérez (1958-2008) and Miguel Ángel Rodríguez (1960 – ), who worked for Ramirez before starting their own business.
At the age of fourteen, they both started working in José Ramírez’s workshop, where they first learned from the other guitar makers and later became Ramírez’s master guitar makers under the famous José Ramirez III.
After a few years, they opened their own workshop at 13 Amor de Dios Street in Madrid, where the “Pedro de Miguel” brand was born. Many of the famous Ramirez guitar makers did the same … Paulino Bernabe, Manuel Contreras, Felix Manzanero, Miguel Malo, Arturo Sanzano
