Diego Amaya Flores (March 27, 1908 in Arriate Málaga, Spain – July 7, 1973 in Morón de la Frontera, Sevilla)[1] was a renowned flamenco guitarist. Diego del Gastor was the creator and best known exponent of the guitar playing tradition of Morón de la Frontera, Sevilla.[2] Today, this tradition has been inherited by his nephews Diego de Morón, Agustin Ríos Amaya, Paco and Juan del Gastor, several grandnephews and nieces.[3]
