About the luthier
So Kimishima is the grandson of legendary Japanese luthier Masaru Kohno. He worked for Masaki Sakurai for the past 15 years until he finally decided to create his own models, which are part of the Kohno Guitar Manufacturing lineup. Kimishima benefits from the research and experience of Masaru Kohno and Masaki Sakurai to continue the quality of their guitars but also to challenge new techniques and develop new models. Like any other excellent craftsman, Kimishima pays particular attention to the details and finish of the guitar.
About the guitar
The “Stella” model by So Kimishima pays homage to the legendary Masaru Kohno guitars of the 1950s and 60s, capturing the essence and craftsmanship that made those instruments so revered. At the heart of this guitar lies a beautifully crafted spruce soundboard, reinforced with six fan braces to ensure both durability and sound fidelity. This is elegantly complemented by Kimishima’s signature rosette, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail that defines his work. The choice of Indian rosewood for the back and sides not only enhances the guitar’s visual appeal but also contributes to its warm and resonant sound.
Beyond its aesthetic allure, the “Stella” guitar is distinguished by its captivating tonal quality, which achieves a remarkable balance across all registers. This harmonious voicing, paired with its excellent playability, makes the instrument a sheer delight for any guitarist. Whether practicing alone or performing for an audience, the “Stella” model offers a playing experience that is both satisfying and inspiring.

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 -
