This perfectionist has been faithfully around since 1991 in the Menudo days.  Being an outspoken and straight-to-the-point guy, he has then earned the rep of the unofficial leader in MDO.  Abel, who thinks himself sexy, also likes to take care of himself, his appearance and personal hygiene and is more vain when it comes to his hair.  For example, he only trust his hairstylist to cut his hair, so he does his own styling- taking time on each strand with lots of hair spray and blow drying.

Hair raising issues aside, this talented guy has lent his blessed voice to countless albums like MDO (1997), Un Poco Mas (1999), Subir Al Cielo (2000) and A Little Piece Of Heaven (2001) and also co-written many songs on their albums with Alexis and Didier.
