Florian Chauvet - 2024 Doubletop

Overview

Florian Chauvet is a highly skilled luthier with a multi-faceted background in music. He is a self-taught craftsman who began his journey in lutherie in the early 2000s and has since honed his skills through hands-on experience and ongoing learning. In addition to his practical training, he holds a degree in musicology from university and has formal classical guitar training from the conservatory. As a concert performer for over 15 years, both as a soloist and as part of chamber music ensembles, Florian has a unique understanding of the needs of musicians in performance situations. This has led him to specialize in creating “double top” classical guitars, which are prized for their superior projection and even tonal quality across all registers. With over ten years of experience producing his highly sought-after double-top model, Florian’s work has been recognized by leading musicians in the field, including Tristan Manoukian, a professor at the prestigious CNSM in Paris. With his excellent craftsmanship, combined with his deep understanding of music and the needs of performers, Florian Chauvet is a truly promising luthier.

The 2024 Doubletop Model classical guitar distinguishes itself through its exceptional sound, characterized by a powerful yet nuanced voice that rises above typical classical guitars. It features a spruce soundboard paired with a unique four-piece back construction, enhancing both the aesthetic and acoustic properties of the instrument. This combination yields a sound that is not only powerful and colorful but also marked by an outstanding clarity and transparency, making every note resonate with striking precision. The guitar achieves a strong, clear, and balanced tonality, which produces a rich, warm sound with remarkable projection. Particularly notable is the first string, which sings beautifully, adding an exquisite quality to performances. This guitar is ideally suited for both solo performances and ensemble settings, providing a voice that is both inspiring and impressive.

  • Classical Guitar

    The classical guitar, with its soft nylon strings and characteristic timbre, has become a symbol of chamber music, Spanish tradition, and concert repertoire. Its modern form was shaped by Antonio de Torres in the 19th century, setting the standard for the body, fan bracing, and the 65-centimeter scale length that are still used today. Instruments in this category open up a rich palette from the refined Romantic miniatures of Tárrega to the majestic concertos of Rodrigo. Here you will find guitars that preserve historical continuity and at the same time inspire new interpretations.
