From the late sixteenth century, and during the following decades, the guitar became for barbers an icon of their profession since -according to a well-rooted literary and social stereotype- skilled craftsmen and officials of this disparaged job used to sing in their shops and in other festive contexts, folías, pasacalles and other popular tunes, wich they accompanied with a villainous strum of the instrument, eventually known as toque a lo barbero.
