Domingo Romera (born c. 1950s) is a renowned Spanish luthier, highly celebrated for his master-crafted flamenco guitars. Hailing from Granada, Spain, a city with a rich tradition of guitar making, Romera has established himself as one of the most respected contemporary builders, particularly within the flamenco community.
Romera began his career under the tutelage of master luthier Antonio Velázquez, a significant figure in the Granada school of guitar making. This apprenticeship provided him with a strong foundation in traditional Spanish guitar construction techniques. Over decades, Romera developed his own distinctive style, characterized by a meticulous approach to wood selection, bracing, and finishing. His guitars are known for their exceptional playability, powerful projection, clarity of tone, and the distinctive "flamenco voice"—a bright, percussive, and resonant sound highly sought after by professional flamenco guitarists.
His workshop is located in Granada, where he continues to handcraft a limited number of instruments each year. Due to the high demand and the labor-intensive nature of his work, his guitars are often sought after by collectors and performers worldwide. Domingo Romera's instruments are considered benchmarks of modern flamenco guitar construction, embodying both the historical craftsmanship of Granada and a contemporary standard of excellence.
