Andrea Marcellan - Grand Concert 2020

Overview

Andrea Marcellan is an Italian luthier and belongs to the new generation of outstanding and aspiring guitars builders in Italy. He attended the instrument making school "Scuola di Artigianato Artistico del Centopievese" in Bologna, after which he opened his own workshop and dedicated himself to the construction of classical guitars. He settled in Padua, Italy, where he has been building beautiful guitars for 11 years.

This instrument, number 58, built in 2020, is based on a special model that Andrea built for the Expo Roma 2020. Back and sides are made of beautiful chocolate brown Indian rosewood. The aesthetics impress with their clear elegance and the sound character with a strong, rich tone. You can feel and hear that Andrea has invested additional time and effort into the sound quality of this instrument. In contrast to his concert or studio model this Grand Concert model is built with a lattice bracing, but unlike typical lattice guitars, without the carbon fiber.

The result is a sound reminiscent of a traditionally built instrument, with a subtle augmentation of sound volume and projection. Andrea has created a fantastic guitar that is marvelously playable, has a surprising dynamic range, and delivers a smooth and versatile tone.

While this guitar 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.
