The Luthier

In the worl of classical guitar music, most of the attention is directed towards the composers of the music and their interpreters, the guitarists themselves. There is, however, a third man in this game which is at least equally important to bring guitar music to the world: the guitar maker, or more stylishly, the luthier.

I played "products" (eh.. sounds a bit abstract, I admit) from various luthiers in the last thirtyfive years of my ( ;-) well. let’s call it) playing career. When I started I was hardly aware of the man/woman behind the guitar.

So that will be the subject of this Guitarity. Click the The Luthier button in the side menu to take a closer look, or just click This Link. The new side menu which then appears provides you with the subjects.

Just a little Caveat to consider during reading these stories. These are my personal experiences, so they are quite subjective. Please do not read them as reviews, because they are not. It's more like a story of all guitars I came across as a player up till now.
