Music master Leo Brower is considered among the most relevant
musicians of the XX Century. I have the honor of being his friend
and I owe him almost my entire career. Brower listened to a cassette
with many of my themes about afro compositions and very soon, he
requested me to contact him. He was thinking to invite me to the Guitar
International Festival in Havana in 1992. This is how it happens and this
was the opening to the professional world where I have had the

admiration to this great person, the master Leo Brower.

| PABLO QUINTANA |
Pablo Quintana is a Cuban luthier, from Matanzas, considered among
the best guitar makers in Cuba. What makes these guitars so unique,
is the fact that they are handmade, using premium woods, so every
instrument is “born” with its own characteristics, adaptable to every
single guitarist. They are powerful sounding guitars with perfect
intonation, projection, and sustain, which you can find in the
harmonics that improve the instrument’s timbre beauty.

I met Pablo in Cuba through guitar master Leo Brower, who introduced me to this wonderful easy
going, crystal sensible person that had built my guitar, with which I have recorded and played all of
my concerts for the last ten years as a professional concert player. Now, fourteen years after loosing
track of Quintana, I meet with him in the U.S.A. in Florida still making excellent “Pablo” guitars
and giving the world a chance to listen to and get a special master piece which are “Pablo Quintana's
guitars.
