Welcome to my website! My life is dedicated to making classical concert guitars that sound and look as beautiful as possible. Please read the following information as you please, and get an idea of what I am making.

 

 The classical concert guitars that I make are especially suited for:

 · Playing in large halls and playing together with other instruments (because of the powerful sound)

· More interesting interpretations (because of the wide dynamic range and the inspiring sound)

· Better legato and better polyphonics (because of the long sustain)

· Easier playing (because of the quick reaction, the powerful sound and the elevated fingerboard)

 My guitars are played in Austria, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Luxemburg, Mexico, The Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Roumenia and the United States.
