About the luthier
Leonardo de Gregorio, born in Rome in 1977, is both a trained guitarist and a luthier. A student of Gianluca Persichetti, he graduated with honours in guitar from the A. Casella Conservatory in L'Aquila and continued his musical formation through advanced studies and masterclasses with Bruno Battisti D'Amario, Massimo Delle Cese, Arturo Tallini, Roland Dyens, David Russell, and the Assad brothers. His performing activity included solo work, chamber music, appearances with the Guitensemble under Arturo Tallini, and recording work for theatre, television, and film. In 2000 he began studying lutherie, drawing on both the historical example of makers such as Torres and Hauser and on more experimental approaches. This background as both performer and maker has informed instruments known for their responsiveness, projection, and ease of control.
This instrument was built in collaboration with Romano Gambacorta. Their work on this guitar reflects a shared interest in concert instruments that remain grounded in classical form while addressing the demands of present day players with clarity and precision.
About the guitar
Built in 2025, this double top guitar with cedar soundboard and wenge back and sides, finished in French polish, makes an immediate impression through its very low weight. In the hand, it feels exceptionally light and alive, with a strong sense of readiness even before the first note is played. The response is extremely fast, and the sound emerges with little resistance, giving the player a direct and effortless connection to the instrument.
Tonally, the guitar combines a dark overall character with notably deep basses and clear, focused trebles. The low register carries depth and weight, while the upper voices retain definition, allowing chords to remain transparent and well structured. Projection is strong, yet controlled, and the rapid formation of sound gives the instrument a vivid and immediate presence. The combination of low mass, quick reaction, and a full, dark voice results in a highly distinctive concert instrument with both power and clarity.
Condition
The guitar is in excellent original condition with normal signs of wear consistent with careful use and handling.

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 -

Frequently Asked Questions About Classical Guitars
How do I choose the right classical guitar for my level?
Choosing the right classical guitar depends on your playing level, musical goals, and budget. Beginners benefit from studio-model guitars from renowned workshops, while advanced players and professionals often choose a handmade master guitar. We are happy to advise you personally and can send detailed sound samples and videos on request.
What is the difference between a master guitar and a studio guitar?
Master guitars are built entirely by hand in the workshop of a single luthier, using only high-quality, well-aged tonewoods. Studio guitars are made in small series, often under the supervision of the master luthier, and offer excellent value for students and ambitious amateur players.
Can I try a classical guitar at home for 14 days?
Yes — every guitar you purchase from us comes with a 14-day home approval period. This complimentary trial applies worldwide to all orders, whether you are in Germany, Europe, the USA, Asia or anywhere else. We ship your instrument fully insured in a high-quality case so you can play it under your own acoustic conditions. If the guitar is not the right one for you, simply send it back and receive a full refund of the purchase price.
Can I try a classical guitar before purchasing?
Absolutely. You are warmly invited to visit our showroom in Karlsruhe, Germany, and test the instruments at your leisure. We are happy to schedule a personal appointment. If a visit is not possible, we send detailed videos and sound samples, and offer extensive consultation by phone or video call.
What payment methods and financing options do you offer?
We accept bank transfer, PayPal, major credit cards, and Klarna. For high-value instruments, we offer individual installment plans on request. Please contact us directly — we will find a suitable solution for every budget.
How do I properly care for my classical guitar?
A classical guitar requires constant humidity between 45 and 55 percent. Store the instrument in its case with a humidifier, avoid direct sunlight and large temperature fluctuations. Change the strings regularly and clean the guitar with a soft microfiber cloth.
