Nils Schebesta - 2021

Nils Schebesta - 2021

Overview

Nils Schebesta is a talented young guitar maker who started his apprenticeship as a luthier ten years ago. After finishing his apprenticeship, he studied guitar making in Markneukirchen and refined his skills during various internships and workshops. Before he moved into his workshop in Leipzig at the beginning of 2019, he worked for a violin maker for several years. From his workshop, he builds instruments inspired by both the German and French tradition.

This superb guitar has an exciting story. As Nils brought us his last guitar and visited our shop, a beautiful 2010 Fritz Ober guitar caught his attention. It had a beautiful three-piece back with flamed maple and a snakewood middle part. With this picture in mind, Nils built the instrument we present today, using the same wood combination. The result is phenomenal, and what an eyecatcher! Nils remained faithful to his concept, and this traditional guitar features an elevated fingerboard. One fascinating detail is the rosette displaying by transparency the sublime colour of a 24-carat gold leaf. This precious material shines through an extremely thin layer of bone and gives this guitar a unique personality.

While this guitar is sold, these are ready for you

  • Classical Guitars

    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.
