Bernard Enzensperger - ca. 1834

Overview

This beautiful guitar built in Vienna around 1834 by Bernard Enzensperger is a fantastic instrument. It is in great condition and was restored by E. P. Hofmann. It is also shown in the book “Stauffer & Co” by Erik Pierre Hofmann, Pacal Mougin and Stefan Hackl on page 182/183. The top had six small perfectly repaired cracks and back and sides are in beautiful shape, free of cracks. Furthermore, the tuning pegs were replaced by very convenient Pegheds™. This guitar is perfectly playable and sounds gorgeous.

The rich and dynamic sound coming out of this small-sized instrument is just remarkable. The left-hand comfort is striking and playing the romantic repertoire on this instrument is dreamlike. Volume, clarity, precision of the notes, balance, this guitar really has it all.

  • 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.
