TORRES AV

Made with the great Luthier Andy Manson

T

his extraordinary instrument transcends mere craftsmanship, offering a direct link to history. The heart of the guitar—its neck, back, sides, and bridge—is forged from approximately 240-year-old Brazilian Rosewood, meticulously reclaimed from an elegant 18th-century bed dating back to the reign of Queen D. Maria I of Portugal.

This rare, historic timber imbues the guitar with a depth of resonance and a character that only centuries of curing can provide. To complete this timeless creation, the soundboard is crafted from fine European Spruce, generously offered by the renowned luthier Andy Manson. This combination of hallowed wood and expert construction results in a guitar that is not just played, but experienced, delivering a tone as rich and profound as its own fascinating heritage.
