She began playing the guitar at nine and soon encountered instrument making through lessons that took place in a luthier’s workshop. During a school internship she built her first guitar from a kit and started assisting a violin maker, which confirmed her decision to pursue the craft professionally. After completing her secondary education, she trained as a guitar maker at the instrument making school in Mittenwald. Since 2009 she has worked independently in Berlin, where she established her own workshop.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\r\nHer approach combines intuitive craftsmanship with analytical precision. Careful selection of materials, supported by measurement and acoustic evaluation, plays a central role in her work. Guitar building allows her to unite music, design, visual aesthetics, and scientific curiosity. Ongoing exchange with fellow makers, in particular with her workshop partner Adrian Heinzelmann, continues to inform the development of her instruments. She works in Berlin Schöneberg.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\r\nThis guitar, number 53, was built in 2019 in traditional construction with a spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, finished in French polish. The concept reflects Linscheid’s engagement with twentieth century French influences in bracing and structural design, interpreted through her own workshop practice.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\r\nTonally, the instrument presents a powerful and centered voice with notable warmth and depth. The bass register is full and supportive, while the trebles retain clarity and carrying strength without becoming sharp. The overall balance across the strings is cohesive, allowing inner voices to emerge naturally. A wide palette of tonal colors can be shaped through subtle right hand variation, making the instrument responsive to nuanced articulation.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\r\nProjection is strong and forward, yet the sound remains structured and controlled. The guitar combines the substance and sustain associated with traditional concert instruments with a flexibility that supports both lyrical repertoire and more rhythmically defined works. Playability is direct and comfortable, offering the player a stable and reliable platform for advanced performance.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\r\nThe guitar is in excellent condition with normal signs of wear consistent with careful use.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53280694731085,"sku":"KS17854","price":9990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/friederike-linscheid-2019-15.jpg?v=1770989172","url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/products\/friederike-linscheid-2019-no-40","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
