Adrien Savary Freestone - 2024 Lattice

Overview

Adrien Savary Freestone studied cabinet making in Paris before specializing in instrument making in Newark, England, for three years. He then decided to further specialize in Classical Guitar and Lute making with the Flemish makers Walter Verreydt and Dirk de Hertogh at CMB in Puurs, Belgium. Fascinated by historical instruments, he has worked for the lute maker Wolfgang Früh in Paris. In his own workshop in Vincennes, Adrien Savary Freestone creates instruments based on legendary makers such as Torres, Arias, Bouchet, and Lacôte. Adrien Savary Freestone is prize winner at the very prestigious 2023 Antonio Marin Montero Guitar Building Competition in Granada, Spain.

Adrien Savary Freestone's latest guitar creation stands out as a remarkable fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation. This instrument strikes a harmonious balance, appealing to both purists of classical guitar design and advocates for contemporary advancements. The distinctive use of all-wood lattice bracing on the spruce soundboard is a testament to Freestone's commitment to enhancing the guitar's organic sound qualities, without sacrificing the power and dynamic range that modern players demand. The choice of Indian rosewood for the back and sides adheres to the time-honored traditions of classical guitar construction, ensuring that the instrument not only sounds magnificent but also carries the classic aesthetics of its predecessors.

The beauty, power, and elegance embodied in this guitar reflect Freestone's mastery as a luthier. Its design is a deliberate effort to meet the versatile needs of today's musicians, offering a rich, powerful sound that does not compromise on clarity or depth. Whether played in a quiet, intimate setting or projected across a concert hall, this guitar is capable of delivering performances with exceptional expressiveness and nuance. Adrien Savary Freestone's new guitar is not just an instrument; it's a bridge between the rich heritage of classical guitar music and the boundless possibilities of future musical expression, making it a prized possession for any serious guitarist.

Adrien Savary Freestone - 2024 Lattice Classical Guitar Review

While this guitar is sold, these are ready for you

  • Classical Guitars

    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.
