Bernhard Kresse - 2017

Bernhard Kresse - 2017

Overview

Bernhard Kresse is a very respected German luthier based in Köln. He restored an impressive number of period guitars throughout his career and gathered an extensive knowledge on these instruments. Many of his guitars were recorded by international guitarists in the past years.
This “Type-B” model was built by Bernhard Kresse in 2017 and is in excellent condition. It is very inspired from a 1912 Manuel Ramirez. Lightly built in the Spanish tradition, this guitar has a very warm rich tone with ample basses. The setup is perfect, and this guitar is a real pleasure to play. In addition, Bernhard Kresse used the best quality of Brazilian rosewood (CITES certified) for this instrument and the Scheller tuners are sublime.

While this guitar is sold, these are ready for you

  • Classical Guitar

    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.
