Luthier
Leo Buendia
Associated with Buendia Guitars
Leo Buendia is a one-man operation shop with a deep-rooted belief in the value of music and craftsmanship. With the perspective and experience of a performing musician, I began my career as a luthier in my hometown of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Years later, I moved to Oakland, California to specialize in the construction of high-end steel string acoustic guitars in a 40 month apprenticeship to the renowned Ervin Somogyi. Upon completion, I founded Buendia Guitars. I build one-of-a-kind custom guitars with the depth of sound and immediate response desired by professional musicians and guitar players around the world.
