About the luthier
Dennis Tolz is part of a new generation of German luthiers who have redefined classical guitar construction through precision, acoustic research, and a deep respect for traditional aesthetics. Based in Kiel, Dennis has gained international recognition for his innovative double-top guitars, which are celebrated for their remarkable dynamic range, projection, and responsiveness. Drawing on his background in both engineering and traditional lutherie, he has developed a refined approach that emphasizes structural efficiency without compromising tonal beauty. His guitars are known for their powerful sound, elegant design, and effortless playability, making them highly sought-after by professional concert guitarists around the world.
About the guitar
This 2021 Dennis Tolz guitar features a modern double-top construction with a spruce outer layer and Nomex core, paired with Indian rosewood back and sides. A key innovation in this instrument is Tolz’s proprietary WaveGuide, a precisely engineered internal feature designed to lower the main air resonance below E (82 Hz) without reducing its efficiency. Unlike a traditional tornavoz, which can dampen resonance, the WaveGuide minimizes turbulence around the soundhole, enhancing fundamental frequencies and deepening the tonal character of the guitar.
The result is a highly responsive, well-balanced instrument with a wide dynamic range, capable of delivering rich overtones and expressive depth across all registers, a true synthesis of acoustic research and refined lutherie. With its exceptional projection, clarity, and effortless playability, this guitar stands out as a compelling tool for both recording and concert performance.
