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.
Can I try a classical guitar at home for 14 days?
Yes — every guitar you purchase from us comes with a 14-day home approval period. This complimentary trial applies worldwide to all orders, whether you are in Germany, Europe, the USA, Asia or anywhere else. We ship your instrument fully insured in a high-quality case so you can play it under your own acoustic conditions. If the guitar is not the right one for you, simply send it back and receive a full refund of the purchase price.
Can I try a classical guitar before purchasing?
Absolutely. You are warmly invited to visit our showroom in Karlsruhe, Germany, and test the instruments at your leisure. We are happy to schedule a personal appointment. If a visit is not possible, we send detailed videos and sound samples, and offer extensive consultation by phone or video call.
What payment methods and financing options do you offer?
We accept bank transfer, PayPal, major credit cards, and Klarna. For high-value instruments, we offer individual installment plans on request. Please contact us directly — we will find a suitable solution for every budget.
How do I properly care for my classical guitar?
A classical guitar requires constant humidity between 45 and 55 percent. Store the instrument in its case with a humidifier, avoid direct sunlight and large temperature fluctuations. Change the strings regularly and clean the guitar with a soft microfiber cloth.

Johan Sarens – Guitar Maker
Johan Sarens grew up in an environment shaped by music, performance, and creativity. His father is a guitarist and his grandfather was a lute maker, a family tradition that set the course for his path into lutherie at an early age.
He first studied jazz guitar at the Royal Conservatory in Brussels and later guitar making at the CMB (Centrum voor Muziekinstrumentenbouw) in Puurs, Belgium. As a trained guitarist and luthier, he understands all the tonal and technical demands of the instrument from both sides.
Since 2021, Johan has been teaching the art of classical guitar making at CMB. He specializes in classical and flamenco guitars, working in the tradition of the Spanish masters. He deliberately limits the use of machines and builds all tone-critical parts by hand. All of his instruments are finished with a traditional French polish (shellac).
In recognition of his exceptional craftsmanship and his dedication to sharing knowledge about guitar making, he received the “Gouden Bootschaaf 2017” (Golden Finger Plane), an award honoring outstanding instrument makers.
