Altamira - Réplique Guadagnini + Étui

The Guadagnini Altamira Hansen Workshop Replica follows in the footsteps of the historic guitars of the early nineteenth century, inspired by Gaetano Guadagnini II and the Turin school of lutherie. This is an instrument designed to give a more intimate, singing sound, far removed from modern standards of power. The aim is clear: to offer a guitar that speaks to musicians sensitive to the Romantic repertoire and more traditional approaches to classical playing.

The solid European spruce top plays a central role in this sonic identity. It delivers natural clarity, with well-defined notes and balanced projection. The sound remains precise, but always nuanced, which is particularly suited to nineteenth-century works and to performances where dynamics need to remain controlled and expressive.

The maple back and sides add to the sense of transparency. The result is a luminous timbre, with well-defined mids and clear melodic lines. The Spanish cedar neck, combined with the African ebony fingerboard, provides a stable, comfortable grip for fine playing and the more technical passages of the Romantic repertoire.

With its historical format, 640 mm scale and narrower nut, this guitar is ideal for more precise and delicate playing. The natural satin finish enhances the wood without visual excess, in the spirit of period instruments. Supplied with a gig bag, the Guadagnini Replica is ideal for guitarists seeking a more authentic and expressive approach to classical playing.
