Martin Jacob - circa.1960

Martin Jacob - circa.1960

Overview

This refined guitar was built by Martin Jacob, Richard Jacob “Weissgerber” ‘s son, in the 1960s. Martin worked many years along with his father in the “Weissgerber” workshop where he acquired very accurate workmanship skills as well as a great understanding of the wood’s tone properties. This guitar has an outstandingly clear tone, crystal trebles and a pure separation of voices. Moreover, it is in very good condition as it only has one small repaired crack on the side and a short one at the extremity of the top, just on the place where the player’s arm rests. It is a truly subtle guitar that has a lot of tone colours to offer, as well as a rich historical background.

  • 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.
