This instrument exemplifies Bernhard’s deep expertise and passion for historical guitars. It is a superb concert instrument with quick responsiveness, exceptional projection, and remarkable volume.

The materials used are of the highest quality: the spruce top and stunning maple back and sides are both visually striking and tonally refined. Additionally, the Rodgers tuning machine not only enhances the guitar’s aesthetic but also performs flawlessly. This Stauffer-style guitar offers a unique opportunity for any guitarist seeking a period instrument crafted by one of the world’s leading experts in historical guitar making.
Otto Rauch is a German guitar maker from the small town of Obermoschel in Rheinland-Pfalz. With over 35 years of experience as a guitar maker, he is one of the German pioneers of double-top construction. After repairing a Matthias Dammann guitar in the early 1990s, Otto Rauch began building doubel-top guitars. At first, he used cedar struts and then a balsa core, a construction he continued to develop over the years. While helping a friend set up his violin making business, Otto Rauch came across the name of the 18th century Venetian violin maker Domenico Montagnana. His cellos are praised for their dark tone, fantastic sound volume and enigmatic construction. As these three attributes reflect Otto’s construction, he adopted the name, and the Domenico Montagnana model was born.

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 -
