Andres Dominguez Guerrero was born the 23 March of 1947 in San Miguel, a neighbourhood of Jerez de la Frontera (Cadiz) with a rich tradition in flamenco.
From early age, he fascinates for the flamenco and its culture, specifically the flamenco guitar, developing a great career as professional guitar player. At the same time, he gets use with the wood knowledge, working as an employee in a local sawmill. In this stage of his life, arise the two main pillars in that he based his future career; first as a guitar player and then as a guitar builder.
He travelled to Seville where he meets the Manuel Ortega Sousa´s workshop. There he learns the work with noble woods and the making of Spanish guitars, inspired in design in Santos Hernandez work.
His natural gift and special skill with wood, together with his deep knowledge of the guitar as a professional player, makes, since then, he dedicates completely to the craft industry of guitars.
In 1971, he installs permanently his workshop in “The Artisans House” in the emblematic neighbourhood of Triana, Seville, where he works at present.
Andres Dominguez has participated with his guitars in many contests and exhibitions, national and International, winning in all the best recognitions. He has participated in the exhibition dedicated to “Antonio Torres and the Andalusian Guitar” in the Guitar festival of Cordoba 2007.
