More details about the guitar

About the luthier

Tamara Stahl began her journey in guitar making in 2016 while working at Siccas Guitars in Karlsruhe, Germany. Playing and studying a wide range of handcrafted instruments sparked her fascination with the construction and tonal character of fine guitars. In 2019, she graduated from the renowned instrument-making school in Mittenwald, Bavaria. To deepen her knowledge of the cultural and historical roots of the classical guitar, she moved to southern Spain, where she learned from experienced masters in the cradle of modern guitar making. Since 2022, she has been based in Weimar, Germany, sharing a workshop with fellow luthier Johanna Vogl, where both benefit from a collaborative yet independent working environment. Her guitars are characterized by precision, refined aesthetics, and a sound that combines the sweetness and clarity of traditional instruments with modern qualities of power and projection. Stahl continually develops her building system through small, deliberate refinements, striving for a balance of resonance, stability, and expressivity in every new instrument.

About the guitar

This guitar, No. 16 from 2025, reflects Tamara Stahl’s matured building style and artistic vision. Constructed in the traditional Spanish manner, it features a spruce top paired with Indian rosewood back and sides, finished with French polish. The doubled sides, reinforced back, and carefully weighted bridge all contribute to enhanced projection, stability, and tonal richness. Tonally, the guitar offers clarity, sweetness, and a wide palette of colors. It responds quickly and evenly across registers, with excellent sustain and dynamic range. The trebles are clear and singing, while the basses are present without overpowering. Its character combines the intimacy and tonal beauty of traditional guitars with the headroom and power demanded in concert situations. The elevated fretboard ensures comfortable playability and effortless access to higher positions. The guitar’s visual design reflects Stahl’s personal interpretation of the Alhambra’s architectural motifs. The abstract rosette, with its fine geometric elements and subtle interplay of tones, was inspired by the domes and mosaics of Granada’s Moorish palace. The result is an instrument that unites traditional craftsmanship with modern artistry, both visually and acoustically.

While this one is sold, these are ready for you

  • 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.

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.

Can I try a classical guitar at home for 14 days?

Yes — every guitar you purchase from us comes with a 14-day home approval period. This complimentary trial applies worldwide to all orders, whether you are in Germany, Europe, the USA, Asia or anywhere else. We ship your instrument fully insured in a high-quality case so you can play it under your own acoustic conditions. If the guitar is not the right one for you, simply send it back and receive a full refund of the purchase price.

Can I try a classical guitar before purchasing?

Absolutely. You are warmly invited to visit our showroom in Karlsruhe, Germany, and test the instruments at your leisure. We are happy to schedule a personal appointment. If a visit is not possible, we send detailed videos and sound samples, and offer extensive consultation by phone or video call.

What payment methods and financing options do you offer?

We accept bank transfer, PayPal, major credit cards, and Klarna. For high-value instruments, we offer individual installment plans on request. Please contact us directly — we will find a suitable solution for every budget.

How do I properly care for my classical guitar?

A classical guitar requires constant humidity between 45 and 55 percent. Store the instrument in its case with a humidifier, avoid direct sunlight and large temperature fluctuations. Change the strings regularly and clean the guitar with a soft microfiber cloth.
