Manuel Adalid (b. 1951) is a second generation luthier, and head luthier at
Esteve. He is widely respected in Spain as among the most experimental and
innovative guitar makers in Spain. Although the Esteve makes production guitars,
Manuel Adalid maintains his own workshop within Esteve, where he carries on
experiments. Made exclusively for Zavaleta's, the Emperor model concert classical guitar is a product of
his investigations. It is built using the latest techniques, raised 20 fret fingerboard, (nomex sandwich
tops, with carbon fan bracing) to produce an instrument of great power and
volume, without sacrificing the distinctive character and bold sound of a Spanish guitar.
The trebles are focused, sweet, and polished. The basses are crisp and firm. It is well-balanced,
even, and sings
in every register. It has great intonation, and is setup perfectly.
It is a guitar truly worthy of a professional player.
