About the luthier
Alessandro Perciaccante is a classical guitar luthier devoted to creating finely crafted, traditional Spanish guitars. He began his journey at the European Institute of Guitar Making in Spain, where he built his first guitar under the guidance of Master Luthier Stephen Hill and his apprentice Evan Kingma. Captivated by the process, he chose to remain and apprentice with Hill, with whom he now works as an assistant and teacher.
Perciaccante specializes in both classical and flamenco guitars, rooted in the Granada school tradition and inspired by masters such as Antonio Marn Montero, Robert Bouchet, and Antonio de Torres. He builds only a limited number of guitars per year, ensuring focused refinement and tonal depth in every instrument. In 2019, he earned fourth place at the prestigious Antonio Marn Montero Guitar Making Competition a remarkable milestone early in his career.
About the guitar
This 2025 guitar, numbered 19, reflects Alessandro Perciaccantes commitment to the traditions of Spanish luthiery while offering the responsiveness and elegance sought by todays performers. Built with a cedar soundboard and Indian rosewood back and sides, it features a traditional fan bracing pattern that supports its rich tonal spectrum.
The guitars voice is broad and expressive, with deep, powerful basses and sweet, resonant trebles. The tone is warm and blooming, with an airy quality that supports long sustain and complex overtones. The dynamic range is impressive, allowing for both intimate passages and full-bodied projection without ever sounding forced.
The instrument is very responsive, ideal for extended performance. The neck profile is comfortable and supportive, enabling relaxed playing across the full 650 mm scale. Finished in transparent French polish, the guitars aesthetic is classic and understated, letting the materials and craftsmanship speak for themselves.
