Paulino Bernabé Roman, born in 1960, is a world-class luthier, much like his father, Paulino Bernabé Almendariz (1932-2007). Paulino's journey into the world of luthiery began at an early age, as he practically grew up within his father's workshop. In the early 1980s, he officially joined his father's side, embarking on a collaborative journey that spanned three decades. Following in his father's footsteps, Paulino not only mastered the art of guitar craftsmanship but also continuously pushed the boundaries, experimenting with construction techniques and sound qualities in pursuit of excellence.
The PB Concierto is handmade by Paulino in his own home workshop, and it is a concert guitar that stands among the world's finest. This instrument is a testament to his unwavering commitment to perfection, utilizing the finest materials available and showcasing impeccable workmanship. Its sound bears the unmistakable Bernabe signature—bold, evoking the spirit of Spain, possessing a full-bodied resonance, and brimming with harmonically rich tones. The PB Concierto boasts beautifully balanced trebles that harmonize with deep, firm bass notes. Its flawless intonation and precision setup make it not only comfortable but also a pure joy to play, elevating it to a realm of musical excellence.
