Frequently Asked Questions About Classical Guitars

How do I choose the right classical guitar for my level?

Choosing the right classical guitar depends on your playing level, musical goals, and budget. Beginners benefit from studio-model guitars from renowned workshops, while advanced players and professionals often choose a handmade master guitar. We are happy to advise you personally and can send detailed sound samples and videos on request.

What is the difference between a master guitar and a studio guitar?

Master guitars are built entirely by hand in the workshop of a single luthier, using only high-quality, well-aged tonewoods. Studio guitars are made in small series, often under the supervision of the master luthier, and offer excellent value for students and ambitious amateur players.

About the Guitar Maker

Erez Perelman builds guitars that are designed to sound exceptional, look beautiful, and feel comfortable to play. Every instrument begins with the player in mind. He carefully considers the musician’s vision and integrates it into both the tonal and ergonomic design of the guitar. Each instrument is uniquely crafted to suit the player’s individual technique, with custom dimensions and setups for optimal performance.

Notably, Erez specializes in working with players who have physical challenges. Through thoughtful design and adaptation, he improves body posture and hand comfort, ensuring that each musician can play with ease and confidence.

The Building Process

Every guitar begins with the careful selection of tonewoods for the soundboard, back, sides, and neck. Each piece of wood is unique, possessing distinct tonal and structural properties. Drawing on years of experience and an intuitive understanding of acoustics, Erez hand-shapes and refines each component to bring out the wood’s full potential.

The assembly takes place on the traditional Spanish solera (workboard), ensuring precision and structural harmony. The instrument is then finished entirely by hand with a French polish, enhancing both its resonance and its elegant appearance. The result is a guitar that perfectly balances artistry, craftsmanship, and playability.
