rudolfo cucculelli
Description
Rudolfo Cucculelli: I started studying luthery with my friend Carlos María Odriozola in 1976. My first instruments were copied or influenced from his professor's ones, Joaquín García Fernández, who has already come from Spain.
Around 1976, I was working with my father (making furnitures in his carpentry): after working all day with furniture, I used to make my first steps in making guitars.
The first thing Odriozola and I did was a drawing of one of the Joaquin's models, which were two basically: the big one and the small one. He drew with me in a big paper the silhouette of the big one and the small one, but the sizes were so different that we decided to make an average between both drawings. The result was this model, which is 49,5cm: see the draw.
I spend many years making this model with it's fan and bottom like the ones Joaquín García used to make.
Around 1980 I asked Vitali Import. Co. for a plan Domingo Esteso (classic) that I made with these materials: bottom and rips in Jacarandá Boliviano, cover in Spruce, handle in Cedro, and diapason in Incienso Paraguayo. This instrument was excellent.
Then, I made this guitar again in Caoba Africana, and Algarrobo, with similar results.
In this year (more or less) I met the flamenc guitar player Miguel Coelho, who used to talk about guitars and art in my home.
Miguel introduced me to Ricardo Gombock and Alcides, both of them from Martínez; and then (through this people) I met Roque Guagliardi, who used to talk about guitars with me ...

When Juan Luis Cayuela was thirteen years old, he started to help his father at the workshop and he began to learn the profession of Luthier. Since that moment he never stopped his investigations and studies about the flamenco guitar and the classic guitar, putting into practice all the experience acquired in his music studies at the music conservatoire, such as tones, sound waves, tuning, etc.
As guitarrist and luthier, he has achieved beauty in the finish of his guitars, comfort for the guitarrist when he´s playing and a high sonority due to the selection of the materials and the drying of them ...

Rodriguez Guitars: Fine Handmade Classical and Flamenco Guitars.
After building electric guitars as a hobby for about four years Thomas Rodriguez had developed enough of a reputation to get a job in a local guitar store as a repairman. The store sold classical guitars and music to the local university. Over the next four years many fine classical and flamenco guitars came through the shop including Ramirez, Contrarez and even a 1930's Santos Hernandez restored by Anthony Huvard. Tom became very interested in classical guitar construction and started reading all he could find on classical guitar construction and theory. In 1996 he opened his own shop selling his electric guitars and doing repair work. Tom started work on his first acoustic guitar, a flamenco. In his repair work he had made every part of an acoustic guitar and his woodworking skills were quite good from his electric guitar construction. He felt it was time to put it all together and make a whole guitar ...
