A musician himself, he first approached guitar making through curiosity and the wish to build the instruments he needed to play. Over time, this developed into a deeper connection with the craft, leading him to dedicate himself fully to this complex art. He began as a self taught maker, later learning from masters he worked with or met in person, while also studying widely from books and written sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eFaggion sees his work as a means of expression rather than a way to repeat familiar formulas. For him, high level instrument making requires the builder to place character and integrity into each guitar, seeking a balance between individuality, function and art. This approach gives his instruments a personal identity, shaped by careful workmanship, thoughtful design and a clear artistic intention.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis Emanuele Faggion Ilios Dreadnought from 2026 is a modern steel string guitar with a spruce top and Pau Ferro back and sides. Siccas Guitars is pleased to present a steel string model that meets the standards of finish, precision and refinement usually associated with our classical guitar selection. The understated design gives the instrument an elegant impronta, where visual restraint, carefully chosen woods and precise execution form a calm but distinctive identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe maker describes Ilios as a guitar built around minimalism, essentiality and purity, with no decoration added merely for its own sake. The traditional Dreadnought body is shaped by contemporary building knowledge, with a traditional X bracing concept refined for responsiveness, projection and efficient coupling of the whole system. The bearclaw spruce top and richly patterned Pau Ferro back and sides give the guitar a visual language of movement and depth, while the treated birch details complete the design with quiet cohesion.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eIts voice is conceived around basses with fast attack, generous harmonic content and sustain, paired with trebles that are crisp yet balanced. The overall sound aims for even volume, controlled richness and a slight, pleasant compression that makes the guitar easier to play without reducing its expressive range. The polyurethane finish is applied as an extremely thin, smooth and durable film, supporting a clean modern surface while preserving the instrument’s refined tactile character. With its 648 mm scale, 43 mm nut width, carefully prepared fretwork, medium jumbo frets, double action truss rod and comfortable medium C neck profile, this Ilios offers a precise, stable and fluent playing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53899715674445,"sku":"KS17909","price":5990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/emanuele-faggion-2026-dreadnought-model-15.jpg?v=1778695574"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/collections\/emanuele-faggion.oembed","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
