We’re continuing our #ThrowbackThursday series highlighting the craftsmanship in our guitars with this rosette.
This rosette, like all the Sanchis Lopez and RSC ones, are traditionally hand-crafted by a wonderful old gentleman who has been with the family for so long he’s considered a part of it. They are made round a block and then thinly sliced and polished. It was fascinating to watch him make these and then see it as part of our lovely instruments.

Hand-crafted to Order
Whilst we keep a range of instruments in stock, one of the advantages of working closely with our wonderful luthiers is that we can offer a build to order service.
Have you fallen in love with a guitar but want it made from a different wood? Want one of our guitars made left-handed, or one of our exclusive Southpaw Central ones right-handed? Do you have a yearning for a particular wood…?
Ordering your bespoke guitar is very simple… just call us. We will listen to your requests and ask a number of questions to ensure the instrument is make to your exact requirement. The instrument will then be commissioned upon receipt of the deposit. Depending on your request, the instrument will take between 3-6 months to be lovingly hand-crafted.
Another reason for contacting us direct is that the luthier may already have an instrument in the precise configuration that you’re interested in. By asking the question, we can find out whether they have one already, or are in the process of making one, thereby ensuring you get your guitar as soon as possible.
