After beginning studies in archaeology at the Sorbonne, he turned toward instrument making and trained first as a cabinetmaker in Paris. He later specialised in guitar making in Newark, England, where he built his first Spanish style classical guitar, before deepening his work with classical and historical instruments at CMB in Puurs, Belgium, under Walter Verreydt and Dirk de Hertogh.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eHis fascination with historical instruments also led him to work with the Parisian lute maker Wolfgang Früh, restoring lutes, baroque guitars, and ouds. Since 2021, Savary Freestone has had his own workshop in Vincennes, where he builds instruments inspired by historic makers such as Torres, García, Hauser, Bouchet, and Lacôte. His approach is not one of exact copying, but of homage: he studies the great models of the past while adapting them to the needs of twenty first century players. In 2023, he received an award at the Antonio Marin Montero Guitar Building Competition in Granada, Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis 2026 Adrien Savary Freestone is a lattice braced concert guitar with a spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, conceived with a rare balance between modern efficiency and traditional warmth. Its construction includes a double back, with Indian rosewood on the outside and spruce on the inside, a concept inspired by romantic instruments and designed to bring greater volume, response, and projection. Rather than making the guitar feel rigid or overly controlled, this inner spruce back adds a subtle sense of movement, helping the instrument breathe and release sound with ease.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe result is a lattice guitar that avoids the heaviness sometimes associated with this construction. Its voice is clear, open, and well separated, with a natural guitar tone that remains present beneath the added power. The sound is full without becoming dark, rounded without losing definition, and generous without blurring the lines. Long notes carry with a soft, singing persistence, while the first string has a particularly appealing sweetness and focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eWhat stands out most is the comfort of the sound. The guitar offers volume and support, yet its character remains warm, airy, and easy to live with over longer playing sessions. There is no harsh brightness, no muddy density, but a wide bodied resonance that surrounds the notes while allowing them to stay cleanly shaped. It is a modern concert instrument with a cultivated voice: responsive, full, and projecting, but still connected to the warmth, complexity, and handmade refinement that define Savary Freestone’s work.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eVisually, the guitar carries his recognisable aesthetic language. The rosette, purflings, bridge, and headstock details include the small black and white square motif that has become part of his signature, giving the instrument a refined decorative identity without excess. Sound and craftsmanship are closely joined here: a contemporary lattice guitar with volume and clarity, made with the sensibility of a builder deeply rooted in historical instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54159261401421,"sku":"KS17935","price":6990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/adrien-savary-freestone-2026-lattice-16.jpg?v=1782419627","url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/products\/adrien-savary-freestone-2026-lattice","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
