Philipp Neumann - 2024 Cedar/Ziricote
Overview
Overview
Every single one of Philipp’s guitars is the product of a long, intense process. He uses all his knowledge and experience to produce high quality instruments. Therefore, he never builds more than two guitars at the same time, so that he can concentrate on every detail. Since the sound of the instrument depends greatly on the type of material that are used, he uses only the best quality tone woods and no prefabricated parts at all. A guitar is not finished until it completely satisfies his demands for a clear and open sound with full and round basses, clear and brilliant trebles, modulated timbre, a singing, sustained tone and responsiveness. The results are melodious, unique pieces and professional instruments for guitarists. His work is based on the Spanish Granada tradition of guitar making using time-tested techniques. The methods incorporate an analysis of historic guitars and modern insights into acoustic processes and the wishes of today’s musicians. Whilst he is very traditional, he is also open to experiments. He tries to combine traditional instrument building skills with modern methods in order to develop the sound of the guitar for the future.
Philipp's latest guitar creation captivates not only with its sound but also with its visually stunning design, compelling every guitarist to pause and admire before playing. The guitar is adorned with fine details, featuring intricate inlay patterns that weave around the fretboard and an exquisite rosette that encircles the soundhole, showcasing the luthier's attention to aesthetic detail. This craftsmanship is not just about beauty; it enhances the overall playing experience, inviting a closer connection between the musician and the instrument. The sound produced by this guitar is both big and bold, characterized by dense, robust trebles and deep basses that offer plenty of sustain. This ensures that the guitar's voice is not only loud but also rich in texture, capable of filling any room with its resonant tones.
Comfort is paramount in this instrument's design, making it a pleasure to play for extended periods. The cedar soundboard paired with striking Ziricote for the back and sides offers a warm, singing tone that retains its power across a broad dynamic range. This combination is particularly effective in delivering a sound that is both lush and articulate, allowing for nuanced expressions in performance. Philipp's approach to luthiery goes beyond traditional methods, incorporating innovative techniques to craft an instrument that stands as a true concert guitar. It's this blend of artistic design, comfort, and exceptional sound quality that sets Philipp's guitars apart, making them not just musical instruments but works of art that cater to the highest standards of professional guitarists.

Classical Guitar
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 -
