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.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eBuilt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eTonally, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe guitar is in excellent original condition with normal signs of wear consistent with careful use and handling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53638904906061,"sku":"S18912","price":5990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/de-gregorio-amp_-gambacorta-2025-reg-lmtd-edition-13.jpg?v=1775743057","url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/products\/leonardo-de-gregorio-romano-gambacorta-2025-reg-limited-edition","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
