Petar Antic – 2012 No. 12 Lefthand

Description

Petar Antic was born in Belgrade, Serbia, where he grew up surrounded by nature, animals, and traditional crafts. As the son of a talented artist and craftsman, he was exposed to natural materials and attention to detail at an early age. At the age of 14, he was introduced to the guitar. Fascinated by a concert by Andres Segovia, he quickly realised that the guitar was his passion. Being left-handed, he had difficulties finding a suitable guitar at the time, which led him to learn the art of guitar making. Petar found his own way, his own vision and style of guitar making, combining the heritage of the great traditional masters with his own personal taste and aesthetics.

This 2012 No. 12 guitar, a poignant legacy of the late Petar Antic, is a remarkable instrument that embodies the master luthier’s dedication to his craft. Brought personally by his son, this guitar, remains technically new and is considered New Old Stock (NOS). It boasts a beautiful spruce top paired exquisitely with Indian rosewood for the back and sides, creating a visually stunning and sonically rich instrument. The guitar’s excellent setup ensures ease of playability, making it accessible for guitarists at all skill levels. Its detailed craftsmanship is evident in the beautifully executed ornamentation, adding to its aesthetic charm. Known for its impressive volume and responsive nature, this guitar offers a wide range of tonal colors, making it a versatile choice for various musical styles and an ideal instrument for both practice and performance, truly reflecting the artistry and skill of Petar Antic.
