About the luthier
Zbigniew Gnatek is one of the most respected contemporary luthiers in Australia and works from his workshop in Sydney. His guitars reflect a meeting point between European lutherie and the tonal aesthetics often associated with the Australian school, particularly through his refined use of lattice bracing and doubled back and sides construction.
His reputation has grown internationally through a consistent focus on sonic richness, careful craftsmanship, and structurally advanced concert instruments. Gnatek’s guitars are played by professional musicians around the world and remain difficult to obtain due to limited annual production and sustained demand.
About the guitar
This 2025 Zbigniew Gnatek is a lattice braced concert guitar with a cedar top and Madagascar rosewood back and sides. Its construction follows the modern Australian inspired approach, with a responsive lattice soundboard and doubled body structure contributing to power, sustain, and tonal richness.
The guitar has a warm, rounded voice with a strong overtone content and an immediate reaction to the right hand. Its air body frequency around E to F supports a deep and resonant bass register, while the trebles remain smooth, singing, and present. The overall character is full and expansive, yet still refined enough to allow clear articulation and controlled phrasing.
The sustain is a central quality of this instrument. Notes carry with unusual length, giving the sound a broad and enveloping presence. At the same time, the cedar top gives the attack softness and immediacy, while the Madagascar rosewood body adds depth, colour, and a rich harmonic foundation. The result is a powerful modern concert guitar with a lush tonal profile and a highly responsive playing feel.
Condition
This guitar is in excellent condition with normal signs of wear. It shows only minor playing marks and is generally very well preserved.

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.
