Welcome to Our Home
I’m Oscar Garcia Díaz, the owner, builder, and the driving force behind General Vintage Tone. My passion for electric guitars started at a very young age and quickly became a way of life. Over the years, I’ve become a dedicated collector of vintage guitars, amplifiers, and other musical artifacts.
As I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for, I began building my own amplifiers and electric guitars. And here we are today, doing what we love.
One thing I’ve learned on this journey is simple yet profound:
"Without soul, there is no tone."
That's why we pour our heart and soul into every guitar and amplifier we create.
