Ernesto Castanera, Guitar Builder:
Build guitars and basses.
The accoustic Guitar has a certain timbre, a quality which distinguishes sounds of the same pitch given by instruments or different human voices: baritones, sopranoes, etc..
The acoustic guitar has also a certain pitch: faster or slower frequency of the same note. But this doesn't have to interfere with the intensity of the sound effect, given by the musical dynamics of the guitarist interpretation ...
While building my instruments I apply a new technique, different to that of my luthier colleagues. Bass and treble sounds are enhanced with musical intent. While lower-pitched sounds represent the base, higher-pitched ones conform the 'presence' of the musical speech (like sopranoes in choirs) ...
Besides all of the musical concepts I apply to my guitar building, I've incorporated PERFECT TUNING in all the guitars I've created and repaired. I guarantee that all of my instruments will have PERFECT TUNING (something I haven't found yet in other instruments) being that one of the distinguishing characteristics of my instruments.
This characteristic is also very noticeable on my electric guitars, resulting in a more clear and pure sound, because all oscillations produced by bad tuning are eliminated.
It took me years of investigation and experimentation, but nowadays I can sell all my instruments with the complete certainty that they will TUNE each note perfectly, and it's a lifetime warranty im giving on that (while the instrument maintains the acceptable use conditions).

También tiene una cierta altura: mayor o menor frecuencia de la misma nota. Pero esto no tiene que interferir con la intensidad del efecto sonoro, dado por la dinámica musical de la interpretación del guitarrista ...
Mientras construyo mis instrumentos aplico una nueva técnica, diferente de las de mis colegas luthier. Los sonidos agudos y graves son mejorados con una intención musical. Mientras que los sonidos graves representan la base, los mas agudos conforman la 'presencia' del discurso musical (como los sopranos en un coro) ...
Aparte de todos los conceptos musicales que aplico en la construcción de mis guitarras, he incorporado AFINACION PERFECTA en todas las guitarras que fabrico y reparo. Garantizo que todos mis instrumentos tendrán AFINACION PERFECTA (algo que no he encontrado todavía en otros instrumentos) siendo esta una de las características que distinguen a mis instrumentos.
Esta característica ademas se hace notable en mis guitarras electricas, ya que una AFINACION PERFECTA elimina todos los batidos resultantes de pequeñas desafinaciones logrando asi un sonido mucho mas CLARO.
Me llevo años de investigación y experimentación, pero hoy en día puedo vender todos mis instrumentos con la completa certeza de que AFINARAN cada nota perfectamente, y doy una garantía de por vida en cuanto a este tema (mientras el instrumento este en condiciones de uso aceptables).

Bruce Walker Guitars are custom hand-made guitars including: classical, steel, string, archtop and electric versions.
In 1994, I retired and subsequently moved to the beautiful Catskills at East Branch, New York. I custom build no more than 10 instruments per year in my mountainside workshop. My instruments combine Old World craftsmanship with New World technology. As do those of most other builders, my guitars rest on the very large shoulders of the past Masters.
I primarily build classical guitars with an occasional archtop thrown in for the pure enjoyment of it. My classical guitars are built either in the Torres and Hauser tradition or from a design borrowed from the ideas of the Ramirez and Rodriguez styles with some minor refinements of my own. From start to finish there are about 300 hours involved in the building of each instrument.
Each instrument is tailored to the specifications of the individual artist. When possible, before the final finish is applied, I spend time with the customer, tuning the guitar to his or her specifications. This insures that each instrument meets the artists' requirements as closely as possible.
