About the luthier
Oreste Lohs is a young guitar maker from northern Italy, based in Arco near Lake Garda. After studying with Daniele Chiesa, he developed a personal building philosophy rooted in tradition, craftsmanship, and a sensitive understanding of sound. He produces only a small number of guitars each year and gives each instrument his complete attention.
Lohs works extensively with hand tools and uses hot hide glue throughout the construction, valuing direct contact with the wood and the clarity that traditional methods bring to his decisions. While the influence of Daniele Chiesa and the Granadan school is present in his work, his guitars already show a distinct personal identity, shaped by disciplined technique, respect for tradition, and calm artistic intuition.
About the guitar
This new 2026 Oreste Lohs No. 24 is a traditional concert guitar with a spruce top and Madagascar rosewood back and sides. Built with hot hide glue and finished entirely in French polish, it reflects a careful and historically grounded approach to construction. The rosette, inspired by Romanillos, is executed with precision, while the Torres influenced headstock gives the instrument a quiet and refined visual character.
The guitar has an airy and open voice, with a clear sense of resonance and an easy response under the right hand. Its air body frequency around F to F sharp supports a deep and flexible bass register, while the spruce top gives the sound definition, transparency, and a lively attack. Despite this clarity, the first string remains soft and singing, avoiding the excessive brightness that can sometimes appear in spruce instruments.
Across the register, the guitar offers full tones, good sustain, and a natural flow between melodic lines. It projects with confidence without needing to be forced, and subtle changes in right hand position bring colour changes readily into the sound. The result is a traditional concert guitar with a modern degree of power and response, shaped with care, sensitivity, and a clearly individual musical voice.

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 -

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.
