Stefan Nitschke - 2024 La Maitechu

Overview

About the luthier

Over the past 15 years, Stefan Nitschke has established himself as a distinguished luthier, creating guitars that transcend functionality to become true works of art. His journey began under the mentorship of the renowned Gerhard Oldiges, and his creations reflect the enduring legacy of 19th- and 20th-century masters such as Antonio de Torres, Francisco Simplicio, and Santos Hernandez. The influence of these iconic figures can be felt in the refined tonal qualities and impeccable craftsmanship of Nitschke’s instruments.

About the guitar

This 2024 Stefan Nitschke “La Maitechu” guitar is a masterful celebration of over two decades of lutherie, designed to offer a rich palette of frequencies and exceptional tonal versatility. The guitar is built with outstanding tone woods: spruce for the top and Brazilian rosewood for the back and sides. As a result, it delivers deep, resonant basses, one of Nitschke’s hallmarks, paired with lyrical, rounded trebles that echo Segovia’s vision of the guitar as a “little orchestra.” The name “La Maitechu” adds a personal, poetic dimension to the instrument, likely drawing from a Basque term of endearment meaning “little beloved one”, a fitting tribute that underscores the intimacy and expressive soul of this remarkable guitar.

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.
