About the luthier
Raised with a passion for intricate wooden flying scale model aircraft and playing the guitar, Steven Toon seemed destined for a career that blended these interests. Initially training as a cabinet maker, Steven further honed his skills at the London College of Furniture, where he specialized in Early Fretted Instrument construction. In the late 1970s, after college, he dabbled as a live sound technician before transitioning to the furniture industry, where he advanced to a manufacturing consultant. Despite his professional path, Steven’s passion for crafting classical guitars flourished as a personal hobby. This hobby eventually evolved into a full-time profession in the early 2000s, focusing on constructing steel string and Jazz guitars, alongside meticulously handcrafted classical guitars, inspired by a repair project of a Hauser guitar. Today, Steven is renowned for his almost exclusive focus on classical guitars, expertly blending traditional craftsmanship with innovative designs. His work now includes the traditional spruce classical guitars influenced by Hauser II, and cedar front guitars inspired by Friedrich. Recently, Steven has delved into creating double top guitars, a concept pioneered by Matthias Dammann and Gernot Wagner, using Nomex to enhance both volume and sustain while retaining the warm tones of traditional guitars. His creations are a testament to his lifelong dedication to the fusion of woodworking skills and his love for music, characterized by a modern, simplistic elegance.About the guitar
The 2024 Steven’s double top model guitar is an advanced instrument that highlights extraordinary craftsmanship and premium acoustic quality. This fresh addition to the market offers a robust, balanced sound throughout its register and an impressive volume that meets the needs of any concert performer. Renowned for its impressive projection and effortless playability, this guitar shines in delivering both power and clarity. The trebles possess a warm, direct tone that harmonizes seamlessly with the crisp, clear basses. This blend of features makes the guitar more than just an instrument; it’s a formidable tool for any guitarist striving for excellence in both strength and projection. The meticulous craftsmanship only adds to its allure, making it an ideal choice for musicians who prioritize precision, quality, and top-tier performance in their instrument.
Otto Rauch is a German guitar maker from the small town of Obermoschel in Rheinland-Pfalz. With over 35 years of experience as a guitar maker, he is one of the German pioneers of double-top construction. After repairing a Matthias Dammann guitar in the early 1990s, Otto Rauch began building doubel-top guitars. At first, he used cedar struts and then a balsa core, a construction he continued to develop over the years. While helping a friend set up his violin making business, Otto Rauch came across the name of the 18th century Venetian violin maker Domenico Montagnana. His cellos are praised for their dark tone, fantastic sound volume and enigmatic construction. As these three attributes reflect Otto’s construction, he adopted the name, and the Domenico Montagnana model was born.

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 -
