The Journey of a Guitar: From Workshop to Our Showroom

The Journey of a Guitar: From Workshop to Our Showroom

At Siccas Guitars, every instrument has a story, and the arrival of Donatella Salvato's No. 57 "Gran Concerto Hommage à D. Friederich" is one we hold especially close to our hearts.

Crafted with care in her workshop in Italy, this remarkable guitar reflects Donatella's dedication to tradition and her exceptional attention to detail. Throughout the process, she kept us updated with photos and insights, allowing us to witness its creation step by step—a rare and special privilege.

This 2025 model features a cedar top paired with Indian rosewood back and sides, finished in a stunning French polish. With its 640 mm scale and 50.5 mm nut width, it offers a comfortable playing experience, making it ideal for musicians seeking a more ergonomic feel. Its warm and sweet tone is a testament to Donatella's craftsmanship and the inspiration she draws from legends like Daniel Friederich.

But what makes this guitar even more meaningful is the name Donatella lovingly gave it: "Little Manuela". This name is a tribute to our colleague, Manuel Luchena, who first recognized her talent and ordered one of her guitars for our shop.

We're thrilled to showcase this masterpiece, not only for its exquisite sound and playability but also for the heartfelt connection it represents.

Stay tuned—No. 57 "Gran Concerto" will soon be available in our shop, and we can't wait for you to experience its magic firsthand!

Your next step is a real classic

  • Classical Guitar

    The classical guitar, with its soft nylon strings and characteristic timbre, has become a symbol of chamber music, Spanish tradition, and concert repertoire. Its modern form was shaped by Antonio de Torres in the 19th century, setting the standard for the body, fan bracing, and the 65-centimeter scale length that are still used today. Instruments in this category open up a rich palette from the refined Romantic miniatures of Tárrega to the majestic concertos of Rodrigo. Here you will find guitars that preserve historical continuity and at the same time inspire new interpretations.
