A little of history:

Francisco Nuñez Rodríguez has an esencial place in the historia of Argentine guitar making. This importance can be seen in Domingo Prats dictionary, where the article about him is one of the longest. Francisco Nuñez Rodríguez was born in 1841 in Tebra in the province of Pontevedra in the northwest of Spain. In 1958, he moved to Argentina where he opened with his brother and friends the first classical guitar store and factory in Buenos Aires. This instrument has just been born in Andalusia, everything is to be done. Argentina by its culture, its roots and its prosperity must participate in the development of this new instrument, Francisco Nuñez and his friends have the ambition to participate in this development. His life as well as that of his company will know ups and downs, successes and defeats, but in the end this dream will be realized. His workshop became a famous place where guitarists, composers, artists and guitar lovers met. His legacy lives on today at 1573 Sarmiento in Buenos Aires. Francisco Nuñez trained luthiers such as Celestino Mendez, Manuel Rodriguez and his nephew Daniel Lago Nuñez who joined him in 1911 and who also became one of the great names in Argentine guitar making. Francisco Nuñez died in June 1919. In 1925 Francisco Diego and Dionisio Gracia took over the company and gave it the name “Antigua Casa Nuñez“.
