Martin Bretscher is a guitar maker known for his exceptional craftsmanship and dedication to sustainable, fair, and unique guitars. His journey into the world of luthiery began with an apprenticeship as a cabinet maker. In 2003, Martin pursued his guitar-making passion and started his secondary education as a plucked instrument maker with Armin Hanika. He quickly distinguished himself as a talented and dedicated student, earning his master’s certificate in 2007. Martin was awarded the Master Craftsman Prize of the Bavarian State Government in the same year, an honor recognizing his exceptional talent and commitment to his work. In 2020, Martin founded Soul Guitars in Bavaria, which reflects his passion for creating sustainable, fair, and unique instruments.

Its body is made from Pau Ferro (Santos Rosewood), delivering a unique tonal character that enhances the guitar's overall aesthetic. The top is crafted from thermo-treated spruce with lattice bracing, a method that boosts the instrument's resonance and projection, resulting in a powerful sound that is both clear and deep.

The Lattice Soulcut guitar exemplifies the blend of innovation and tradition in guitar craftsmanship, reflecting Martin’s commitment to using local and sustainable woods. This choice highlights a dedication to sustainability and environmentally friendly practices in luthiery.

Martin Bretscher - 2024 Soulmate Lattice Classical Guitar Review

While this guitar is sold, these are ready for you

  • 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.
