German Herlein

I've shared the stage with musicians such as Jorge Pasquali, Manu Katché and Rick Zunigar —one of my teachers, without knowing who he was— and collaborated with him on tours and masterclass translations. I translated masterclasses and interviews with artists including John Stowell, Mike Stern, Scott Henderson and John Scofield.

In 2007 I toured Argentina with Rick Zunigar, sponsored by the Musicians Institute (Hollywood, CA). That same year I won Mike Stern's Yamaha guitar — a moment I still remember with gratitude and surprise.

My YouTube channel brings together collaborations with artists from around the world, including Manu Katché, Rick Zunigar, Juanjo Hermida, Jivan Gasparyan Jr., Yuji Nakagawa, Andreas Bernitt, Josh Doughty, Tore Brunborg and many others.

I play a LOUZAO Smallman (Greg) guitar, built especially for me by legendary luthier Ricardo Louzao, with whom he collaborated on his book La Guitarra Mágica.
