Finally received the book yesterday and it took 1 week. to get here from spain. I liked the book , it has a homespun DIY feel to it. In it romanillos shares his love and passion for the classical guitar. An instrument I also love .Jose shares his building philosophy of over 50 years as a maker . There are photos of plans , homemade jigs , tools , etc. I was surprised to see that he uses primarily hand tools to do his excellent work. The author gradually introduces you to his workshop, his building methods, his lifestyle , his philosophy towards guitarmaking and how he got to where he is today . An inspiring body of work for those interested in the classical guitar. I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.I would have liked to see more colour photos of the jigs tools etc.
