Admira A8 nylon string classical nylon string guitar MADE in SPAIN w Solid Cedar top ARTESANÍA series

The Admira A8 is a classic combination of a Solid Cedar top and Indian Rosewood back and sides to ensure a full-bodied, rich tone. The A8 features a Mahogany neck with Indian Rosewood reinforcement and an Indian Rosewood fingerboard and gold machine heads and is finished in high-gloss.

The A8 is crafted with the traditional Spanish heel neck joint which is considered the most highly developed neck joint in guitar construction. It is significantly more complex than a glued neck, but the sonic benefits are worth the effort. When building a guitar with a Spanish neck, neck and headblock are carved from one piece of wood.

Our Handcrafted guitars are a fusion of the best quality materials, designs and manufacturing techniques by our highly skilled and passionate Spanish-trained luthiers. Our luthiers use traditional handcrafting methods to produce guitars with exceptional tone, clarity and expression.

Admira Guitars are without doubt one of the most popular and biggest selling Spanish classical guitar brands in the world today. Admira are firmly rooted in Spain with their manufacturing workshops still based in Zarautz, northern Spain.

Founded in Spain in 1944 by German born Enrique Keller Fritsch, Keller - Admira have continued to manufacture their guitars with the same quality focus and artisanal integrity that have seen them reach their current global status.

The process of manufacturing Classical Guitars does not easily lend itself to the kind of automation often found in similar areas, so they retain a large, highly skilled workforce with only a few specifically automated processes. The vast majority of each guitar is built and finished by hand.

For many years now, Admira guitars have been the classical guitar of choice for teachers, students and professionals alike. With a variety of models tailored to suit, many models are regularly specified as the must-haves by local education authorities and experts alike.
