About the luthier

Luca Santambrogio, born in 1995 in Desio, northern Italy, is a young luthier rooted in a region long associated with artisanal excellence. After earning a degree in industrial design, he turned to guitar making and graduated in 2022 from the Civica Scuola di Liuteria di Milano. His formative years included apprenticeships with respected luthiers Roberto De Miranda and Marco Bortolozzo, where he gained both a strong technical foundation and an appreciation for tonal refinement and visual clarity. Now working independently in Milan, Santambrogio draws on the legacies of Spanish masters like Antonio de Torres and José Luis Romanillos, crafting guitars that explore traditional construction through a highly disciplined and modern lens.

About the guitar

This 2025 traditional model by Luca Santambrogio is a tribute to Antonio de Torres’ FE24, conceived as a lightweight and responsive instrument built with historical sensibility. Weighing just 1190 grams, the guitar reflects Torres’ original structural lightness. The spruce top is paired with birdseye maple back and sides—selected not for tonal modification, but in adherence to the original FE24 materials. Although this instrument does not include a tornavoz like the historical model, it achieves a comparably low air body resonance between D sharp and E. The resulting voice is open and intimate, with a warm decay and refined balance. This is not a direct copy, but an interpretive homage: it honours Torres’ tonal and aesthetic ideals while applying Santambrogio’s own design discipline. The guitar speaks with delicacy, precision, and a clear, historically informed character.

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.
