I've been working with Luis for 5 years and he always understands my ideas and helps me create whatever's in my mind into something great. Amazing producer and guitarist. He brings new ideas and perspectives, enriching all the projects in which he participates.

Very creative and great musical ideas! This guy is a complete genius.
Great producer, makes magic. It’s amazing really how Luis can transfer to music production what you have in your mind as an idea. He potentiates everything to a great level. His touch is just amazing and with the guitar he is just on another level. He is also a great person and spending hours with him at the studio is really magical and amazing.
This man can make you sound like heaven with his mixing and producing skills. Also, he's a great amazing guitar player, I don't know how does he does it.
Working with Luis over the past years has been one of the greatest creative experiences I’ve ever had! I don’t know any musical theory, but Luis has been able to translate whatever’s on my mind to sounds I had only dreamt of. I’m currently working with him on new music and would do it again in the future.
I've played with him a couple of times and he is the most easy going, professional, and passionate guitarrist Ive ever played with. He will make you sound good without a doubt
Luis Guadarrama has been my producer and guitarist for the past four years. Since the first time I stepped into the studio, he has understood my musical concept perfectly. So far, we have produced around six songs, and in all of them, the work has been professional and friendly. If you are thinking of hiring him, don’t hesitate—you will get high-quality work and also have a good time.
Great guitar player and producer!!
