More details about the guitar
The Siccas Luthiers Legacy Doubletop embodies a modern German double top concept, designed to produce smooth, darkly coloured trebles and a velvety, controlled projection. Voiced with a strong emphasis on warmth and balance, the instrument offers a rich and stable response even under less than ideal nail conditions, consistently yielding rounded and sonorous tones. Its immediate response and wide dynamic range provide a highly responsive and reliable playing experience, combining power with a high degree of control.
This spruce top version is distinguished by its clarity and sustain, qualities that remain present even at high levels of projection. The sound develops with definition and structure, allowing precise articulation while maintaining a full tonal body. Rather than projecting sheer volume alone, the instrument carries with direction and musical shape, giving the player the ability to form and control phrasing with precision.
With its 64cm string length, the instrument offers a notably comfortable playing experience. The shorter scale facilitates ease of reach and left hand flexibility, without limiting musical possibilities. It is not restricted to guitarists with smaller hands, but equally suitable for players with standard hand sizes who require comfort and control in demanding repertoire with extended stretches. The response remains immediate and supportive, enabling both precision and ease across a wide dynamic range.
The instrument is finished entirely in French polish, enhancing both tonal openness and the natural visual character of the woods. Combined with Indian rosewood for the back and sides, it produces a focused and projecting voice with clarity and depth, while remaining responsive to subtle variations in touch.

Regular care extends the life of the instrument
Even with careful use, a classical guitar may gradually change in appearance or respond to unstable storage conditions. Have a close look at your guitar regularly and be attentif to changes. If your instrument is suffering from its environement, it will let you know.
Protect Your Guitar: Handle with Care
Be mindful when touching your instrument with greasy or unwashed hands: any skin contact is a small attack on the varnish. Of course, a guitar is made to be played, but taking a few precautions helps preserve its beauty: wash your hands before playing, wear long sleeves, and avoid unnecessary direct skin contact with the body of the instrument.
Pro tip: Avoid playing with a button-up shirt, heavy jewelry, or a belt, as these can scratch the guitar. Also, make sure your guitar case is free of any objects that could damage the instrument during storage.
String care
A good habit to adopt is wiping down your strings briefly after each playing session. This small action significantly extends their lifespan and helps maintain a consistent, comfortable feel under your fingers.
Most importantly, clean strings are essential for keeping your instrument in tune. Corrosion, sweat, and dust can affect the uniformity of the strings and interfere with accurate tuning across the entire fingerboard.
Pro tip: If you're having trouble getting your guitar in tune, it might be time to change the strings. A useful test is to compare the pitch of the 12th fret harmonic with the fretted note at the 12th fret; if there's an unusually large gap between them, your strings may have lost their integrity and should be replaced.
Keep Your Shellac Finish Shining!
Got a guitar with a shellac (French polish) finish? Here's a simple trick: Take a clean microfiber cloth and gently breathe on the surface to create a light mist. Then, softly rub to remove fingerprints, sweat, and grease. That’s usually all it takes to keep it looking great, no products needed!
Pro tip: Every few years, treat your guitar to a check-up with a luthier to keep it in top shape.
Storing Your Guitar: Climate Matters
Your guitar can safely stay outside its case, as long as the surrounding environment maintains 42–55% humidity and a temperature between 18–25°C.
Keep in mind that humidity levels can still fluctuate inside the case, especially during seasonal changes.
- Too much humidity may cause overtightened strings and a dull tone.
- Too little humidity can lead to a bulging top, string buzz, or even cracks.
Avoid placing your guitar near radiators, air conditioners, or windows with direct sunlight.
Pro tip: Always close your guitar case while playing. This helps preserve a stable microclimate inside the case, so your instrument is protected the moment you put it back in.
