where design freedom, traditional craftsmanship, and a fearless creative spirit converge. Each guitar is built entirely by hand—from first sketch to final setup—reflecting Diego’s belief that instruments should adapt to the player, never the other way around.

Diego’s inspiration is drawn from many worlds: the glamour of classic cinema, the energy of Rock’n Roll, mid-century design, and the evolving needs of modern players. His flagship Austral model is named in honor of iconic screen legends—Lilian, Brando, Pola, Laura Palmer, Greta, Simone, and Joan—infusing each instrument with a sense of personality and drama. This cinematic connection runs deep; before becoming a full-time luthier, Diego worked in the film industry in his native Argentina, an experience that shaped his sense of storytelling through design.

While his finishes often nod to mid-century style—like vintage sparkles, celluloid pickguards, and traditional Spanish binding details—his approach is rooted in experimentation. He embraces unusual client requests, explores scale and construction variations, and studies how woods and materials interact to create warm, timeless tones suited for today’s music.

Diego builds for players who value individuality over imitation. His guitars are not factory-made instruments—they are personal, expressive tools that carry the identity of the musician wherever they go. Each piece is completed with two signature touches: a herringbone accent in tribute to Spanish guitar-making tradition, and his personal emblem—a Coral tree flower merged with flame—honoring his Argentine roots.

To Diego, the craft is more than lutherie: it’s about building relationships between musician and instrument, creating guitars that feel as good to play as they are to behold. His work is an intersection of art, tradition, and rebellion—rock’n roll with a soul, told with a Spanish accent.
