Oscar Trezzini, Luthier:
I have been making classical guitars since 1982. My current workshop is located in Geneva, Switzerland.
I personally design and craft all stages of construction, including the seasoning and the choice of the wood, the marquetry of each rosette, and the application of the French polish. A guitar requires four months of construction time ; and I make ten guitars in a year.
By means of this website I will show you my present work, the ancient productions, and some of the techniques I use when constructing the guitars. You will also be able to find testimonials that my clients have written about their experiences with their guitars, and to hear a sample of my guitars played by some of my clients.
As the classical guitar is an instrument in constant development, aside from my annual production, I carry out research on new structures and new materials. This adds understanding to the complex mechanisms of guitar production.
I became, and remain today, surrounded by clients and friends who, besides accompanying me with their music, contribute to my chosen path by trying my guitars and giving their professional viewpoints. The French guitar maker Dominique Field, with his keen perception and rich experience, coaches me as I strive to create the best possible guitars.
J’ai commencé à construire des guitares classiques en 1982 et je travaille dans mon atelier à Genève, en Suisse.
Je m’occupe personnellement de la construction de chaque guitare dans toutes ses étapes, y compris le séchage et le choix des meilleurs bois, le vernis au tampon, et la construction de chaque rosette en marqueterie. Chaque guitare demande environ quatre mois de construction, et ma production annuelle est d’environ dix guitares.
Sur ce site, je vous présente mes guitares actuelles et anciennes, et je vous montre quelques processus engagés dans la construction. Sous la rubrique Témoignages vous trouverez les commentaires de mes clients sur leurs expériences avec leurs instruments. J’ai également rassemblé de beaux morceaux de musique joués par mes clients, avec les guitares que je leur ai faites ...
Comencé a construir guitarras clásicas en 1982 y trabajo en mi taller de Ginebra, en Suiza.
Construyo cada guitarra en todas sus etapas, desde el estacionamiento y la selección de las maderas hasta el lustre a muñeca, pasando por el diseño y el armado de cada roseta en taracea. Cada guitarra me lleva alrededor de cuatro meses de construcción, y mi producción anual es aproximadamente de diez guitarras.
En este sitio presento mi trabajo actual, mi trabajo anterior y algunos de los procesos de construcción. Bajo el rubro Testimonios incluyo música grabada con mis guitarras, presento a sus intérpretes e incluyo los textos que ellos escribieron sobre su experiencia con sus instrumentos ...

Lafayette, Colorado, USA,
I have been building guitars since 1997 and continue to experiment with different woods and am open to any ideas you may have.
Check out the newly updated Archtop Jazz Guitar page. I'm planning
on doing the same thing to the Flat top page in the near future.
If you're interested in a Small Electric Archtop, check out the one on
my current project page. It has a fantastic sound even with my cheap
little amp. Pictures: Building an Archtop Guitar.
