Dedicated exclusively to the classical guitar, he builds each instrument by hand, using carefully selected woods and drawing inspiration from the great Spanish makers of the past. He graduated with highest honours from the Civic School of Lutherie in Milan and, in 2005, completed a post diploma internship in the workshop of Enrico Bottelli, where he deepened his understanding of construction technique and tonal refinement. In 2006 he attended the José Romanillos Guitar Making Course in Sigüenza, an experience that strengthened his search for a personal voice marked by resonance, mystery, and evocative colour. Further work in Granada with Daniele Chiesa brought him closer to the Spanish tradition that remains central to his aesthetic, while his own Italian background gives his instruments a particular sense of clarity, proportion, and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eVailati’s work is shaped by a patient study of historical models and by the desire to recover the roots of their sound world rather than to produce direct replicas. His personal model aims for balance between registers, ease of response, transparency, and a refined musical flexibility that allows the player to shape sound with precision. His instruments are also distinguished by their visual restraint, meticulous finish, and carefully judged decorative details. Today, his workshop is located in Bologna.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis 2026 Angelo Vailati No. 262 REG Limited Edition is a traditionally constructed classical guitar based on the maker’s own model. Built with a spruce top and satinwood back and sides, it is finished in French polish and fitted with Alessi tuning machines. The choice of satinwood gives the guitar a luminous visual character, while the mirror like finish, refined rosette, purfling, and headstock detail show Vailati’s characteristic precision and quiet decorative discipline.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe internal construction follows a minimal but carefully tuned fan bracing concept, allowing the guitar to remain rooted in traditional Spanish inspired sound while offering a highly responsive and resonant playing character. Its low air body frequency, measured around F to F sharp, supports the impression of deep basses and a relaxed body resonance. The sound is clear and elegant, yet each note is surrounded by a soft halo of overtones that gives the instrument warmth and depth without clouding its definition. The guitar responds with immediacy, offers a wide dynamic range, and keeps its tonal quality intact as the sound expands. It is an instrument of poise and refinement, with a voice that feels both transparent and richly coloured.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53810509611341,"sku":"S18934","price":12990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/angelo-vailati-REG-2026-55.jpg?v=1777550980","url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/products\/angelo-vailati-2026-no-262-reg-limited-edition","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
