Concert, S.A. was created in 1984 in Valencia by the Spanish Luthier Antonio Sanchez after many years' experience working in different guitar factories. During his almost twenty years of factory existence, Antonio Sanchez dedicated this time to study and to try and improve the qualities of the instrument. This study and his investigations with different materials and designs has led to Antonio Sanchezs guitars being respected and admired all around the world.
The continuous improvement of the instrument is still the main concern for the Sanchez guitar factory. Mr. Sanchez personally selects different woods as well as being involved in the natural drying process which can last more than one year. Of course, he also supervizes the entire production process of the 'Estudio' models as well as the personal construction of the most prestigious guitars models too.
The workshop is situated in Paterna city and it has a staff of twenty craftsmen who have all had long experience in guitar manufacture. With around ten thousand guitars a year capacity of production it has been easy for them to maintain the most pure craftmanship tradition coupled with technological innovation in order to obtain a guitar of excellent technical and tonal characteristics.
