Lorenzo Frignani - 2024 No. 265 Cedar
Overview
Overview
Lorenzo Frignani’s passion for luthiery first ignited at the end of the 1970s. He began his professional journey in 1986 and has since garnered numerous accolades both domestically and internationally, winning several lute-making competitions in Italy, such as those held in Bagnacavallo and Baveno. He has also served as a member of juries for competitions in Baveno, Pisogne, and Sesto Fiorentino. Frignani is a consultant for several foundations, associations, and museums dedicated to music and even an artistic consultant for the Comune of Pieve di Cento in Bologna for events related to stringed instruments, including exhibitions, conventions, courses, and concerts. He is currently the President of the A.L.I Professionisti, the Professional Italian Association of Luthiery. His expertise lies in the creation and restoration of fretted and bow instruments. In 2007, he founded LF Editions and published various catalogs and articles on classical luthiery and antique plucked instruments. As a renowned collector and expert, he resides and works in Modena, Italy.
This exquisite guitar captivates at first glance, showcasing the pinnacle of guitar-making artistry. The cedar soundboard, enhanced through a delicate aging process, not only elevates its visual allure but also plays a crucial role in shaping the instrument’s superb acoustic qualities. Lorenzo applies the same aging technique used for bow instruments to the top, bringing out rich tonal depth. Frignani’s inspiration from David Rubio’s sound ideals and plantilla is unmistakable, as he skillfully integrates an “x-bracing” design that reflects Rubio’s signature approach. This adaptation, paying homage to the Italian master’s techniques, endows this guitar with a harmonious blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern acoustic engineering, making it a true masterpiece of form and function.
The guitar’s distinct and powerful character shines through in its seamless integration of voices across the register, each contributing a unique color to create a cohesive and balanced sound. Its relaxed timbre enriches the playing experience, where each note and chord resonate with clarity and warmth. This guitar, with its exceptional beauty and outstanding sound quality, stands as a testament to Frignani’s dedication to his craft and his ability to create instruments that not only meet but exceed the expectations of musicians worldwide.

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 -
