Ortega Billy Watman Signature Nylon

Billy Watman is an award-winning Anglo-Brazilian classical / finger-style instrumental guitarist based in London (UK). Currently studying at The Royal College of Music - inspired by the likes of Rodrigo y Gabriela, Tommy Emmanuel, Mike Oldfield, and Paco De Lucia. He reached the final of ‚Guitar Star‘ - a guitar-based talent show open to all ages and genres for Sky Arts TV, which was broadcasted in the UK, Europe, Australia, and South America.

The BYWSM guitar was designed in close collaboration with Billy. He has chosen a solid spruce top, back and sides in a stunning hand-selected White Ebony with a gloss finish. Playing comfort is provided by the 48mm slim neck which features Billy‘s trademark hat inlay at the 12th fret, a newly designed cutaway, and a pronounced flamed Acacia body binding with an embedded ergonomic armrest.
