Overview
Overview
This guitar is a finely crafted replica of an 1840 Louis Panormo model, built by luthier David Garcia Moreno. Louis Panormo, often regarded as the "English Stradivari," was a celebrated 19th-century luthier known for his exceptional craftsmanship and influence on early classical guitar design. Panormo guitars, inspired by Spanish makers such as José Pagés and influenced by the growing popularity of the instrument across Europe, are renowned for their refined tone, elegance, and innovative construction techniques.
This particular replica faithfully captures the essence of Panormo's work. It features a spruce top, for clarity and rich tonal palette, paired with Indian rosewood back and sides, adding warmth and depth to the sound. The guitar delivers a balanced, articulate voice with a strong projection, embodying the tonal qualities and aesthetic charm that made Panormo's instruments highly sought after by musicians of his time and today. Whether for historical repertoire or contemporary exploration, this instrument is a testament to both Louis Panormo's legacy and David Garcia Moreno's meticulous craftsmanship. Although used, the condition of this guitar is excellent, showing only minimal playing marks.

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 -
