Built in 1883, the original SE-43 represents an important chapter in the extraordinary legacy of Antonio de Torres (1817–1892), widely regarded as the father of the modern classical guitar.
Throughout its history, this celebrated instrument underwent work by distinguished luthiers, including Manuel Ramírez in 1912 and Robert Bouchet in 1950. Its design and craftsmanship remain an enduring source of inspiration for guitar makers and musicians.
