Ignacio Fleta’s design features sturdier bracing of the top and back, and results in a powerful concert guitar. His guitars have been played by Andres Segovia, Alexandre Lagoya, Eduardo Falu, Alberto Ponce, and John Williams. This example from Kenny Hill’s shop is Brazilian Rosewood and European Spruce for added warmth and clarity. In addition it is French Polished and upgraded with Gotoh Rodgers-style tuning machines.

Kenny Hill’s take on the Fleta design scores a 10/10 for fit-n-finish, responsiveness, clarity, and easy playability. This 2004 Hill Fleta Signature comes with a mosaic-and-birds-foot rosette that contrasts greens and reds to the rich amber of the European Spruce top. We found that Kenny Hill’s Signature Fleta loves an aggressive attack; digging in, it just got louder and louder without topping out! We’re happy to report that this beauty has opened up handsomely since 2004, and it plays almost without effort.

Ignacio Fleta was one of the key inspirations for Kenny Hill when he began building guitars. His signature series Fleta is an homage to a master. Kenny does a wonderful job of capturing the power and beauty that I have heard in the genuine Fleta guitars. This one has been played enough to be fully alive and magical.
