About the guitar

This 2025 model, No. 380, is a traditional concert guitar inspired by a mid-20th-century German instrument closely associated with Julian Bream, with whom Southwell worked directly in refining the model. It features a spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, finished in French polish. Its tonal character is distinguished by exceptional balance, precise note separation, and a soft, rounded treble that blends effortlessly with the mid and bass ranges. The basses develop with openness while preserving clarity. The guitar responds with nuance to dynamic shifts and subtle phrasing, making it a compelling choice for performers seeking expressive flexibility and refined tonal color.

  • 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.
