Classical Guitars

Handmade in Sydney Australia

Classical Guitar

I offer three exquisite models of the Classical Guitar.
Each model is hand made in the traditional Spanish style with modern contemporary touches in my workshop at Sydney Australia. All my guitars feature the same soundboard bracing design with loud volume, highly responsive to the right hand, huge presence, and great dynamic contrast.

“The finest Australian Classical Guitar”

“The Toscano classical guitar is like a V8 that demands to be heard throughout the room yet retains fine tonal subtleties usually unheard of with such a boisterous and responsive instrument” – Alejandro Tarrega
