HANDMADE CLASSICAL GUITARS

The handmade classical guitars from Scharpach Guitars are made by using the highest quality materials, perfectionistic crafting practices, and pure attention to detail to match your specific needs as a guitar player.

Scharpach classical guitars go by the name of Concertura. Currently, we offer two versions: a true traditional build and a version as a classical guitar double top.

For the tops we use European spruce wood, which is at least 40 years old. For the sides and back on the other hand, we use Brazilian rosewood, which is stocked wood more than 100 years old.

The traditional version of this classic guitar can be built either in the style of Santos Hernandez, Robert Bouchet or Daniel Friederich.

These traditional handmade classical guitars are of great value and impress with their unique sound. We have researched many guitars from these makers. Theo Scharpach’s 40 years of experience in guitar making has made it possible to understand the unique bracing and building targets of these makers. These guitars offer a warmth and sweetness that is much sought after.

Our classical guitar double top version retains the tone of the traditional guitar as much as possible, delivering a great projection and yet a warm sound.

Of course, we accept custom-built nylon string orders as well. For example, a cutaway version for those who like to play Jazz.

THE CONCERTURA SANTOS HERNANDEZ

Theo is currently building classical acoustic guitars that are inspired by the great Spanish master Santos Hernandez. These guitars are of great value and impress with their unique sound. For this purpose, Theo Scharpach researched two guitars created by Santos Hernandez dating from 1925 and 1935 respectively. These two guitars, from different periods, were kindly made available to us by their owners. Santos Hernandez made one of the guitars at the Ramirez workshop and has been played by Andreas Segovia. He later started his own workshop.

THE CONCERTURA CLASSICAL GUITAR DOUBLE TOP

After many years, Scharpach Guitars decided to produce double top classic acoustic guitars once again.

I build an “unconventional” double guitar without the use of Nomex or carbon reinforcement strips, as Theo feels these are artificial materials and do not age during an instrument’s life.

Mostly, cedar top was used on the outside and a spruce top on the inside. We also use no lattice bracing. This may not be conducive to generating high volumes, but it will promote tonal quality with sufficient volume. At Scharpach, Theo aims to build classical guitars handmade which are capable of singing, not guitars that shout.
