Description
Keijo Korelin is a 33 year-old luthier from Finland. He has been working as a full time guitar builder since 2006 and focused on double tops since 2007. Korelin’s double top model is a result of a long period of experiments and collaboration with such luthiers as Gernot Wagner and Gregory Byers. Korelin is more focused on the quality of sound than on the volume. He builds limited number of 10 guitars a year and he has a one year waiting list. His guitars could be descriped as “powerful modern concert guitars with sophisticated sound”. Such concert artists as Juuso Nieminen, Nemanja Ostoich, Victor Santana and Otto Tolonen are playing his guitars.”
