About the luthier
Angelo Vailati belongs to the younger generation of Italian luthiers who have already earned recognition far beyond their national borders. His formation included study with Enrico Bottelli, José Luis Romanillos and Daniele Chiesa which allowed him to explore a wide range of European traditions while shaping a precise and personal understanding of sound. Working from his workshop in Bologna he creates instruments that unite classical craftsmanship with a refined contemporary aesthetic. Vailati approaches each guitar with a strong sense of proportion, balance and material sensitivity. His work is defined by clarity of design, expressive subtlety and a tonal concept that seeks richness without losing transparency. These qualities place him among the distinguished voices of modern Italian guitar making.
About the guitar
This mint 2024 instrument is built in the Romanillos tradition and features a high quality spruce top together with CITES certified Brazilian rosewood for the back and sides. The entire guitar is finished with French polish which enhances resonance and preserves the delicacy of the structure. The rosette and the elegant headstock decoration echo the expressive language of the Spanish master while still reflecting Vailati’s own artistic identity. At 1470 grams the guitar remains light and highly responsive. Alessi tuning machines complete the instrument with reliable precision.
The tone reveals itself with clarity and ease. Each note emerges cleanly and carries a gentle bloom of soft overtones that lends the guitar a lyrical and expressive presence. The instrument breathes openly and reacts to the smallest variation of touch which allows vivid colour changes with minimal movement of the right hand. The Brazilian rosewood adds depth to the basses and a luminous quality to the trebles giving the guitar considerable range for shaping musical lines. The sustain is long and stable which allows melodies to unfold in a calm and unhurried way. Despite its generous projection the guitar preserves warmth, balance and refinement. It is a highly responsive concert instrument that rewards nuance and encourages expressive interpretation.
Condition
The guitar is in mint condition and shows ever so slight signs of use.

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.Look all products of the collection -

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.
