Son of an Andalusian luthier, Rodolfo Camacho Viera was born in 1887 in Montevideo, Uruguay, and made his career in Buenos Aires.
His guitar labels proudly quote Segovia's words: "Considero the guitarra that m'ha hecho el Sr. Camacho Viera el mejor instrumento de cuantos han pasado en mis manos.” (I consider the guitar which Sr. Camacho Viera has made for me, the best instrument of all which went through my hands).
The guitar was restored by Guillermo Aguer, whose label was then glued close to Camacho's guitar.
The notes are clear, well detached, the tone deep, the character well marked.
