About the luthier
Raffaele Dantone was born in Bolzano in 1993 and lives in the Fassa Valley in the Dolomites. Growing up in a region shaped by forests and woodworking traditions, he developed an early interest in working with wood and spent several years as a carpenter. His path toward guitar making began after a workshop with the Italian luthier Mirko Borghino, an experience that led him to study at the Civica Scuola di Liuteria di Milano. After graduating, he continued his training in the workshop of Daniele Marrabello, where he refined his understanding of construction, sound, and detail. He now works independently in the Dolomites, building classical guitars in a traditional manner with close attention to materials, response, and finish.
About the guitar
This 2024 classical guitar by Raffaele Dantone is built in the traditional style, with a spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides. The choice of materials gives the instrument a clear tonal center, with warmth and depth in the bass register and a singing, focused quality in the trebles. Its voice is balanced and articulate, yet capable of a broad range of colour, which makes it rewarding both for controlled lyrical playing and for more expansive concert repertoire.
The air resonance at F supports a sonority that feels grounded and rounded, lending the basses notable presence without obscuring inner voices. At the same time, the treble register remains open and resonant, with enough clarity and projection to carry easily in a hall. The traditional build and French polish contribute to a lively, responsive character, allowing subtle variations in touch to translate directly into changes of colour, attack, and dynamic shape.

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.
