More details about the guitar

About the luthier

Vincent Engelbrecht is a distinguished classical guitar maker based in Forcalquier, Provence, France. His journey began in 1997 at the age of 17, when he apprenticed under the renowned luthier Christopher Schuetz for three years. Following his apprenticeship, Vincent deepened his understanding of sound by working as a sound engineer and acoustician for six years. In 2006, he returned fully to guitar making, applying his acoustic expertise to develop a unique bracing system. This innovative design features a star-woven spruce mesh integrated into a spruce and balsa top, dramatically enhancing both tonal depth and responsiveness.

About the guitar

This exceptional instrument is a clear expression of Vincent Engelbrecht’s innovative vision. The standout feature is his proprietary star-woven spruce mesh bracing, combined with a spruce and balsa top. This design not only increases the guitar’s volume but also preserves a richly nuanced tonal palette, making it versatile for both intimate performances and larger concert stages. The top’s carefully controlled tension translates into an effortless right-hand response, allowing for refined dynamics and expressive playing with ease. The instrument’s dynamic range and balance are truly remarkable, with singing trebles and a robust, articulate bass response. It’s no surprise that acclaimed guitarist Cassie Martin performs with a Vincent Engelbrecht guitar. This guitar offers both technical ease and musical inspiration, meeting the highest expectations of demanding players.

  • 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.
