Maestoso Music was founded in 2002 by Paul Gregory. As a professional guitarist and teacher, Paul realised the poor choice of classical guitars available to his students. Unbelievably, they owned guitars with poor sound, inaccurate intonation and awkward actions! In quite a small way, Paul imported some guitars from Spain.
He visited makers and discussed in detail how the construction might be improved. Following an introduction through master luther Stephen Frith, Paul gained exclusive import rights of two well known Spanish makers. Maestoso grew and continued supplying to more retail shops throughout the UK.

Juan Hernandez Iranzo was born in Turis (Valencia) Spain in the late 1940's. He began learning guitar making in the Francisco Esteve workshop at the age of15. There he became an "official" (certified guitar maker) and later he became production manager of the Esteve workshop. For many years he has been involved with the construction of the deluxe models made at Esteve.
The name Altamira originally came from the cave of Altamira in Santander located in North Spain. In it you will find drawings from 30000-20000 BC, which turn out to be the oldest original works of art. The Altamira cave was listed on the "World Heritage List" in 1985. Design and quality are the characteristics of Altamira guitars that have made long-term customers so satisfied.
