Francisco Bros Guitars was founded by Francisco Broseta Rogla. Francisco started making guitars in the 1950s as an 18 year old as an apprentice to Jose Roca at Dolores Marin. Francisco married Herminia Monroy (who had been working at another prestigious guitar maker - Hijos de Vincete Tatay) and together they moved to Gata de Gorgos, Alicante in 1974 where they founded their own company. Today the company is run by their son Paco.
