The Luthier Craft Of Richard Reynoso

Although the classical guitars of Richard Reynoso are fully traditional in construction design and largely inspired by the great Spanish makers of the past, they do have a voice and personality that is entirely his own. See in this short documentary how Richard's artistic style is informed in subtle ways by his immediate environment - the classic architecture seen in some of Hollywood and downtown Los Angeles' most iconic historical buildings of the art deco era. His love of hard yet graceful lines and contrasts is expressed in his signature carved headstock, and exquisite rosette design which draws from his love of art-deco styled chandeliers and ancient Egyptian jewelry.
