Amalio Burguet was born in Catarroja, a small Village near the City of Valencia, in 1951. He was very soon captured by the magic of making the six string Spanish Guitar. He began developing his talents as a guitar builder as a youth and spent several years working in different workshops not only in Valencia, but in shops such as that of Paulino Bernabé in Madrid.  Valencia's guitar factories had traditionally made average guitars, with the best ones coming out of one man workshops. Amalio Burguet took the best of both worlds. He has worked out every single detail concerning the materials, temperature and humidity conditions and the method of construction in order to develop a guitar that could be manufactured and yet conserve the high standards offered by hand-built instruments. Their top models are made entirely by hand, and sixty five percent of their other models are hand-built.

In contrast to the other guitar makers, he has never worked alone. He opened his shop in 1984 with a staff of three guitar makers. In 1994, he opened a new workshop with a much expanded staff which currently numbers fifteen.  Fortunately his original idea has been very successful. They now build about 1,500 guitars a year. Following this philosophy, Sr. Burguet continues to introduce improvements, looking each day to build better guitars. Burguet guitars not only have been embraced by market, but also by musicians who always have the last word, who buy and play his instruments.  
Recently, Amalio has opened a workshop of his own within his factory where he builds their top models-- with a B engraved in the headstock entirely by hand.
