[Profile]
Born in Madrid in 1943. His father was Marcelo Barbero I (1904-1956), one of the most famous Spanish master craftsmen of the first half of the 20th century. When he was 13 years old, his father Barbero I passed away, and he was apprenticed in the workshop of Jose Ramirez III. Later, Arcangel Fernandez, an apprentice of Barbero I, opened his own workshop, and Barbero Hijo entered as an apprentice there in 1957.
The guitars that were shipped with the "Arcangel Fernandez Workshop" label were in fact completely handcrafted by Barbero Hijo himself, and were loved by core guitar fans as having a quality as high as that of his mentor Arcangel.
From the late 1990s, he also produced guitars under his own original label, and was showing increasing refinement and enrichment, until his untimely death in January 2005.
His slightly rigid tone evokes the best traditions of the Spanish guitar, which were passed down to his master, Arcangel, and even to his father, Barbero I. The more he approached the last years of his life, the more his reputation grew.

[Description]
There is one crack repair on the sound board from the bridge to the bottom of the treble side. Other than that, the rest of the guitar is in a very clean condition, and is made of his typical top quality wood. The neck is slightly forward warped and has been adjusted for easy playability.
The tuning machines are custom made by Rodgers (original Fustero is also included).
