After a technical education and an early personal involvement with music, he began studying the guitar and later approached lutherie as a self taught maker. He subsequently spent time in the workshop of Mario Novelli, a respected luthier of Florentine origin based near the hills of Treviso. In 2004, Maguolo officially opened his own workshop in Mestre, first in Via Giacinto Gallina and, from 2005, in the red house workshop in Via San Donà, Favaro Veneto.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eFrom the beginning, Maguolo dedicated himself to the construction of classical guitars, while also broadening his technical formation through courses in bow maintenance and repair at the Civic School of Lutherie in Milan with Pietro Cavalazzi, and in violin making at the School of Lutherie in Pieve di Cento with Marcello Bellei. Since 2013, he has exhibited regularly at Roma Expo Guitars, a central meeting point for Italian guitar making and for national and international players, collectors, and dealers. His work has gradually reached an international audience through specialised classical guitar shops and clients in Europe, Asia, and the Americas.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis 2026 Marco Maguolo Ducale Double Top No. 322 REG Limited Edition is a cedar double top classical guitar with a Nomex core and Indian rosewood back and sides. Built as part of the Roma Expo Guitar Limited Edition project, it belongs to Maguolo’s own Ducale model and features an elevated fingerboard, giving the instrument a modern concert profile while preserving the visual refinement associated with his work. The neck is made from Cedrela odorosa, while the fingerboard is BrankoWood, a sustainable and stable alternative to ebony. Made from Pinus radiata and stabilised with natural resins, it offers a durable, moisture resistant surface with a highly uniform colour and an elegant appearance that recalls the classic visual character of ebony.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eFor this REG edition, Maguolo gave the instrument the title Future, Curiosity and Wonder. The concept grew from a visit to the Spallanzani School in Mestre, where he spoke to students about how a guitar is born and how wood can become sound. After one student asked whether he would dedicate a guitar to them, the idea became the emotional centre of this instrument. The dedication reflects youth as future, curiosity as a guiding force, and wonder as the openness through which discovery begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe guitar has a powerful, projecting voice with a bright and clearly defined tonal core. Its double top construction gives the sound immediacy and carrying strength, while the cedar top contributes warmth and colour. The sustain is long, with especially singing upper notes, and the instrument offers a broad dynamic range that allows the player to move from a quiet, controlled sound to a much fuller presence without losing tonal stability. In this Ducale Double Top, Maguolo brings together the classical guitar tradition and a contemporary construction concept in a voice that is direct, resonant, and musically flexible.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53810528813389,"sku":"S18942","price":9990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/marco-maguolo-REG-2026-15.jpg?v=1777551617","url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/products\/marco-maguolo-2026-ducale-double-top-cedar-no-322-reg-limited-edition","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
