Paulino Bernabé voices every soundboard that leaves his workshop himself, and that personal touch is what gives each guitar its unmistakable character. The Model 20 Spruce is where that dedication shows most clearly.

Built as a true concert instrument, it delivers a powerful, distinctly Spanish voice with remarkable projection and clarity. The trebles are firm, rounded, and brilliant, singing freely into the highest registers, while the basses answer with depth and musicality. Together they form a palette that is bold, balanced, and expressive.

The spruce soundboard brings its own personality to the instrument: a bright, immediate response with superb definition, letting every line and voicing stand out with precision. Paired with Paulino Bernabé P.B. Special Guitar Strings, the guitar speaks with conviction from the very first note.

A concert guitar in every sense, the Model 20 Spruce reflects the skill and passion of one of the world's most respected luthiers.
