His guitars are celebrated for their distinctive sound, which balances rich bass and melodic treble tones. Always at the forefront of innovation, Carrillo’s workshop incorporates various construction techniques, continually advancing the understanding of lutherie.

Internationally renowned artists such as Paco de Lucía, Tomatito, J.M. Cañizarez, El Niño Josele, Rafael Cañizares, Javier Limón, Keith Richards, and Josemi Carmona (Ketama) have all played guitars meticulously crafted by Vicente Carrillo.

Vicente Carrillo’s legacy goes beyond the instruments he creates. Through his dedication to preserving and advancing the art of guitar making, he has become a symbol of Spain’s cultural heritage.
