Gabriel Ayala stopped by our booth at NAMM 2016 with his Manuel Rodriguez guitar in hand, and treated us to a performance of “Tango en Skai,” a great piece by Roland Dyens. A member of the Native American Yaqui tribe, Gabriel is based in Tuscon, Arizona, and has put out eleven albums so far. He has taught for many years (mostly master classes these days) and also tours widely.
