Eddie with his two new Classical Guitars

Two classical guitars just got loved!

Eddie, a flamenco player from Australia, customized 2 classical guitars from us, one Humpback and one Ramirez Classical Guitar.

Eddie Humpback Classical GuitarThe Humpback Classical Guitar

He first found out about us was from a mall exhibit. He got amazed the first time he tried to pay one of our Humpback Classical Guitars, but didn’t decide to buy it yet. The time he visited our shop, looking for a similar instrument, but sadly it was no longer available for sale. We told him he can customize his own Humpback Classical Guitar.

His guitar had a Solid Engelmann Spruce top with Solid Mango Humpback, and arm rest of Philippine Ebony (Kamagong). Inlayed on the headstock of this guitar are his initials A and F, and with the flower fingerboard inlays.

 

Eddie Ramirez Classical GuitarThe Ramirez Classical Guitar

Taking a quick tour around our  showroom, he saw our Ramirez Classical Guitar with the falling leaves inlay and a guitarist inlay at the back but unfortunately it already had an owner. He decided to customize his own guitar with the same specifications.

The top wood was a Solid Engelmann Spruce, with a Solid Indian Rosewood back and sides. Attached on his guitar was a Fishman active pick-up.

The guitarist inlay on the guitar looks like this:

After months of waiting, he finally got hold of his guitars and immediately started playing with them.

He also quoted:

I really love the sound of the humpback guitar.

An online page about Ferangeli Guitar Handcrafter

Ferangeli Guitar

Originally located in old Lincoln St., in the heart of downtown Cebu City, Ferangeli Guitar Handcrafter, has been handcrafting quality acoustic guitar instruments since 1919. Now managed and operated by Master Luthier Fernando Dagoc, the custom guitar factory is now located in Barangay Pajac, Lapu-lapu City in the Island of Mactan – the capital of guitar making craft in the country.

Far from the crude tools of yore, Ferangeli now handcrafts its exquisite line of acoustic steel and classical guitars with state-of-the-art equipment and backed up by a pool of experienced highly skilled craftsmen and luthiers. These fine instruments are made under the strict supervision of Fernando Dagoc who is descended from a family line of excellent luthiers. Over the years and with his experience in various production processes, Mr. Dagoc continues to learn new innovations in guitar technology and invests in the latest equipment that is at par with international luthier standards.

Such qualities set him apart from the other luthiers in the community, and as a testimony to his superb craftsmanship, he has customized orders from different parts of the globe. Some of his classical guitar pieces are exported to established Guitar shops in Spain and the U.S.

A glimpse of Mactan and Ferangeli Guitar Handcrafter

Ferangeli Guitar

As you fly into Cebu and walk out of the air-conditioned plane, you immediately feel the hot humid climate of Mactan. Lunch time can only be at Sutukil — a native restaurant where specialty is fresh sea food. You choose the moist fish, lobster, prawns or whatever and they serve it to you cooked suiting your craving taste buds. Nothing fancy, just healthy sumptuous food on a bamboo table overlooking the sparkling sea and its mid-day sun. For a group of 4 you’ll only be spending less than 2,000 pesos.

If however, for only one reason should you come to Cebu or Mactan in particular, don’t miss Ferangeli Guitar. A haven for quality, original stringed instruments. The Shop stands at Abuno, Lapu-Lapu city, the heart of guitar making in Cebu (A taxi ride from the airport is a mere thirty minute ride costing only around 100 pesos). You’ll be greeted by the owner Andoy and his lovely wife Aying. A very, very talented couple who has developed the stringed instrument into a work of art. Here you’ll find the exacting concert guitar to the extreme “T-back” guitar; ovation guitars designed in every form possible from the usual wooden “hunchback” to the intricate glued shells from the deepest parts of the Philippine sea.
