Randy Angella, 1947-2021, built hand-crafted classical and flamenco guitars, custom-made to the player's hands, stature, and style. Played in concert halls worldwide by some of the most talented players that have ever lived.

“During the past 32 years of guitar building my guitars have evolved as my appreciation and understanding of the music has changed. At the heart of my building there has always been the desire to produce guitars that allow the performer to express himself without regard to any limitations the guitar may impose.”

– Randy Angella

It's hard for me to imagine your improving on your best previous work. Those guitars have got what other luthiers are spending their lives looking for. Just make more of them.

It's gorgeous. Outstanding, clear, balanced, forceful, ringing, pianistic instrument, already; and will be my mainstay for a long time to come. It does everything I want, and responds intelligently, with dignity. It's even strongly built, unlike some of the graham crackers out there.

I will say for the price this may be one of the best guitars I've had... Very old school guitar and great.... Did I say that before? It's new and has to be played. Looks like a Hauser on the outside and a Fleta on the inside.

Hearing Is Believing

A light and feathery weight to the physical body of the guitar belies her raw, explosive power. Set up to play classical or flamenco, with beautiful sustain, you can hear the growl of the trebles smoothly layered and voiced with the Basses.
