Gerrit van Bergeijk Handmade Guitars:
I'm a luthier from Holland specialising in Selmer style, steel string and classical guitars.
As a guitarmaker I know as no other that it is necessary to use excellent materials and good tools to create a high quality result.
This statement surely counts for musicians. As a guitarmaker I construct the tools for the player. A good instrument makes you as guitar player more expressive, stimulates your creativity and gives you much more fun. In my opinion the most important part of making music ...

Paul Fischer, maker of fine classical guitars:
Fine instruments are a pleasure to play, a joy to behold….. there can be few appreciating assets which can give such pleasure both for the present and for future generations.
Beginning his instrument making career in 1956, Paul Fischer has remained true to his art and is now the most famous British living classical guitar maker. He is widely acknowledged throughout the world as one of the finest exponents of the craft of the luthier. Born on the Isle of Man but brought up in the city of Oxford, it was here that he began his career under the tutelage of the renowned harpsichord maker Robert Goble, making instruments within the finest European tradition. Further study at the Oxford College of Art and Technology completed his training. Making harpsichords, spinets and clavichords gave him an added perspective and fresh thoughts on the quality of craftsmanship and value of the history of instrument making ...

Paulino Bernabe, nació en Madrid el 2 de julio de 1932. A la edad de 17 años, empezó a estudiar con Daniel Fortea, alumno de Tárrega. Fue durante los cuatro años que pasó con Fortea, cuando se desarrolló su interés en construir guitarras.
En 1954, el joven guitarrista se convirtió en aprendiz de constructor de guitarras y rapidamente en encargado del taller de Ramirez. En 1969, abandonó este taller para establecerse en Madrid.
Bernabé está considerado como un investigador que ha desarrollado sus propios sistemas y métodos de construcción. El sonido de sus guitarras se distingue por tener robustos bajos y fuertes tiples, siendo unas guitarras llenas de poder y con una gran fuerza y proyección de sonido.

5. crafter
The Company that is now Crafter was founded by HyunKwon Park in April 1972 in the basement of his home, four people working in a 20 square metre area. In that early period, the company produced classical guitars for the Korean domestic market and these quickly earned a good reputation, mainly for their high quality of sound.
The company soon had to move to new, bigger premises in order to build enough guitars to fulfill the demand and, in 1978, it moved again, this time from Seoul to the new area of Yangju-gun.
At that time, the guitars were branded ‘Sungeum’ which means ‘accomplishing the sound’ and this is still a well known brand in the Korean market, today. HyunKwon’s ambition was always to supply instruments to guitar players throughout the world, however, so he then started to make acoustic and electro-acoustic guitars which had more international appeal.
In 1986, in Jae Park, his elder son, also joined the company with HyunKwon Park remaining as chairman. InJae believed that ‘Sungeum’ was too difficult a word for his export market so he decided to create a new brand that would be both easy to remember and convey an appropriate image. He chose the name ‘Crafter’, which has connotations of high quality and also pays tribute to the craftsmen who create the guitars. The Crafter brand is now registered in more than 40 countries throughout the world.
The latest factory, opened in 2000, is a 7,000 square metre building on a 12,500 square metre site. It is both new and modern, enabling them to produce the cleanest instruments whilst keeping to traditional production methods that allow the craftsmen to care for the instruments that they produce. The 140 strong Crafter workforce produced 60,000 instruments in 2001, with a capacity to build far more than that number ...
