Overview

Rinaldo Vacca, a renowned guitar maker, was born in the small town of Cabras in the province of Oristano, located in the beautiful island of Sardinia, Italy, in 1960. His journey into the world of crafting stringed instruments began in the 1980s, fueled by his deep-rooted passion for music and the guitar. Rinaldo’s initial foray into instrument making was sparked by his childhood friend, Sandro Vargiu, with whom he often enjoyed playing the guitar. Sandro’s encouragement and shared love for music inspired Rinaldo to delve into the art of building guitars. Although his early attempts proved discouraging, Rinaldo’s passion only intensified, driving him to explore new sounds through the medium of wood. With a self-taught approach, Rinaldo embarked on a quest to create his own guitars. At first, he drew inspiration from the traditional Spanish guitar model. However, driven by a desire for innovation and personal expression, the Sardinian guitar maker eventually decided to experiment with a unique method of construction and assembly. This new method allowed Rinaldo to meticulously oversee each phase of guitar production, resulting in a consistently high standard of quality. He recognized the invaluable role that musicians played in his craft, considering them his greatest allies. Through their expertise and experience, musicians were able to identify the nuances and intricacies of the instruments, helping Rinaldo refine his techniques and achieve superior craftsmanship. Rinaldo Vacca’s guitars soon gained recognition for their exceptional quality, craftsmanship, and distinctive sound. Musicians sought out his instruments, appreciating their attention to detail and the passion poured into every creation. Rinaldo’s dedication to his craft and unwavering pursuit of perfection propelled him to become a respected figure in the guitar-making community. Today, Rinaldo Vacca continues to build guitars in his workshop, combining traditional techniques with his own innovative approach. His instruments are coveted by musicians and collectors alike, each one bearing the mark of his artistry and devotion to the craft. Rinaldo’s guitars stand as a testament to his adventurous spirit, relentless pursuit of excellence, and harmonious fusion of music and craftsmanship. Rinaldo guitars are played by many guitar players across the globe, such as Kazuihito Yamashita, Kanahi Yamashita, Enea Leone, Jozsef Eotvos, Salvatore Seminara, and many more.

While this one 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.
