I have accumulated 3 Picador acoustic guitars. Can find very little on the history of these guitars other than they were licensed under the C F Martin guitar company and were either Martin or Sigma guitars that did not meet Martins standard and were Badged as Picadors usually for a minor finish blemish. Any one having information on these wonderful guitars please contact me.

Thanks for the information - I added a page for Picador here.
It looks like they just stuck the Picador logo over the original Martin or Sigma headstock logo.

When I bought mine 20 yrs back, I was told the exact same thing. I was told mine was from the early 70s.

I circa Picador 12 string at Martin factory in Nazareth PA. in the late 70s . My grandparents lived across the street for Martin. Still have guitar and was told it was not up to Martin's standards and was sold very cheap .
