  • I'm sold. Can I have one?!?

  • great song , great video of the guitar coming to life

  • from Jose', the Hermeterec........The Mexican people are fabulously hard and GOOD workers. All of these stereotypes which portray them with a sombrero canted down over their eyes, asleep under a palm tree with flies buzzing around them are nothing but racist propaganda. As for the jobs they are taking away from "good, hard-working American family men", you can get the same jobs if you're willing to work bent over in a sweltering field sixteen hours a day! Any takers.....???

  • @rartolaf BIEN LO DICE EL SEÑOR GUITARRERO JOSE LUIS DIAZ EN EL DOCUMENTAL LA GUITARRA NO SE DEBIO HACER EN SERIE.

  • Its "La Catedral (3rd movement)" not cathedral....Nice video by the way, like it a lot.

  • @ditman333 I understand your need to differentiate between Barrios and Van Halen, but catedral does indeed translate to cathedral in English :)

  • En efecto, es una simple factoría de guitarras producidas en serie: cada obrero hace lo suyo en la línea de producción... Ciertamente respetable tal modo de ganarse la vida, pero nada qué ver con la música... "La Catedral" más bien nos remite a una atmósfera intimista; a las manos amorosas de un luthier en su taller personal, cuidando hasta la obsesión el más mínimo detalle... ¡Más sensibilidad, por favor!

  • mas sensibilidad.. por que tan negativo? es nada mas un clip de un documental que cuenta todo eso de los lauderos, las fabricas, la musica.. toda la cultura de la guitarra en un pueblito mexicano.. y de todos modos no todos tienen lana pa pagar una hecha a mano.. asi que fabricas son necesarias.. mas gente tocando guitarra mejor no!.. nada que ver con la musica?? que digas eso a la nina que compra su primera guitarra ahi

  • @oldbear103 De acuerdo esencial contigo. Sin embargo, cuando hablo de música y sensibilidad me refiero a la pieza usada de fondo. Son 2 conceptos diferentes que nos remiten a 2 realidades diferentes. Conozco lutiers que igual hacen guitarras baratas que caras y que vieron la necesidad de restringir su labor a lo caro porque alguien vio dónde estaba el billete y montó una fábrica. La eterna dialéctica entre lo artesanal, lo hecho en serie y el derecho a ganarse la vida...

  • Its correct, these guitars are good for beginners, i think its not advisable for beginners to play guitars worth $8,000, if they improved and really fell in love with guitar playing, maybe they can buy more expensive guitars.

  • Flawless. 10/10

  • It would be desirable to kiss to these people of a hands for their fine work, that they distribute the best tool on the ground - a guitar!

  • @thejugglenaut91 Very good comment I completely agree his greg smallman can pay for each of those workers.

  • Wasn't this from a documentary where John Williams visits the town and factory? What I don't get is if it's good enough for Williams, why are people being so negative. They are great guitars for the beginner!

  • I'm so sorry and sad to see this as much as see a pig or chicken farm acini.

  • me da tanta pena y tristeza ver esto, tanto como ver una granja de cerdos o pollos acinados.

  • Excelente Video!

    Felicitaciones.

  • Such fine artistry in both the making of the guitars and the making of music.

  • Pedro... Your fired!

  • Look how fast they make those Guitar Shaped Objects......

  • I think you were given a poor comment rating because you couldnt be bothered to read the info or the comments already written below. weird. Paracho is a town of guitar makers in mexico.

  • Instead of giving me a poor comment rating, please answer my question...

  • What or who is Paracho??

  • go and look for abel garcia and you'll see if there´s just 60 dollar guitars in paracho. or fructuoso, salvador castillo, so on..

  • Dont forget Arnulfo Rubio's guitars!

  • .. then you simply don't know Paracho very well.

    There are all types of guitars in Paracho.. cheap factory made and hand made guitars, but there's also plenty of world class guitar makers that make instruments as good as you'll find anywhere.. and at a better price. They just dont have a prestigious reputation to go with it.

    You can't tell just from this one clip (from documentary 'The Guitar is their Song').. check out the trailer as well

  • i don`t speak very well english but that guitar make in paracho michoacan the best guitars of the world. I buy in paracho my guitar and have a beatuful sound and quality is perfect. 5000loto. sorry but by english

  • Do not know what it is supposed to be, but it reminds me of the Tijuana guitar factories (45 years later) we used to frequent on our way back to SC from surfing Baja in the early '60s. Most of the guitars self destructed w/in a year.
