Andrea is a great master and a great man. I admire him as a luthier and am very glad to call him a friend. Not surprising that your guitar is gloriously beautiful but it is a real treat to share the experience with you. Thank you! Aaron Green
Ask someone what a Tacchi cost 10-15 years ago compared to today. When buying a brand new guitar there may be an immediate loss, but over time it’s not so clear. A good guitar doesn’t make a better guitarist, but it inspiring to play what you know is a work of art that you have a finite amount of time with. Finally, craftspeople are becoming more of a novelty which is a shame. Luthiers and craftspeople deserve a good quality of life. If a Luthier is selling his guitar for considerably high amounts that’s likely a result of thousands of hours of work and a market, supply and demand that supports that. It’s up to you to check the market and not be impulsive.
That is a magnificent sound for a guitar straight out of the box and to think that it will only sound better with playing. Magnificent - an excellent choice.
Eine wirklich außergewöhnliche Gitarre für einen ebensolchen Menschen! Gratulation, Jouyan👏🏼❤️🔥 Um dieses Instrument werden Dich sicher viele beneiden. Schließlich noch nachträglich herzliche Glückwünsche zum Geburtstag und hoffentlich noch viele schöne Videos bei Siccas 🍀
The volume and projection of each string sounds very even in relation to each other which, as you know, is not easy to achieve. I come from the Jazz world so my knowledge of Classical luthiers is very limited. However, I can tell your instrument is top tier in every respect. Congratulations! That's a treasure you'll have for life.
@@Jouyan.T I use a Gibson L-5 CES, Sadowsky Jim Hall model (shown in my avatar), Sadowsky SS-15, Sadowsky Electric Nylon, Sadowsky Semi-Hollow and I'm currently waiting for a Buscarino Cabaret model (nylon). It's going to take a year to build and just ordered it in January. I can't wait!! Typically, I play steel string archtops but over the past year I've gotten into the Nylon Jazz sound. Specifically, Earl Klugh, Lee Ritenour and Leonardo Amuedo. I don't play professionally but have been a serious hobbyist for a long time. I just enjoy playing at home merely for the love of the instrument and music in general. I am 69 and for me, the guitar is the best therapy for both mentally and hands. Thanks for sharing your post. P.S. - Did he send you any pictures during the build process of your guitar. Scott
Congratulatios, It´s a beautiful guitrar, the top is spectacular, in two colors: Cedar and srpuce...also the rossette: You are like: "Kid with new shoes" (In spanish: "Como niño con zapatos nuevos"). Superb guitar!
I am thinking when you play it in a bit it will be even sweeter and richer in sound and have deeper body tone loudness of sound and projection. Really lovely guitar 😍I really like that Wenge wood on guitars made with it that I have heard never played one myself
Congratulations on your new guitar! I was wondering why the back and sides are lined with maple and cypress. Is there an advantage to using wenge and then lining it, as opposed to just using solid maple and solid cypress? Is it the added weight of the lined wenge that is desirable? Again, amazing build and completely unique and in its own lane.
I am conflicted in regards to a guitar that is in the very expensive range---above 5,000---I think there are very much diminishing returns ---hey if you are rich why not---but if you are not---don't think an expensive guitar will have you play better----playing well is a matter of hours and hours of the right kind of practice---and above all you must have the soul of an artist. Those who are gifted with the soul of an artist can play a 200.00 guitar and move the audience to tears.
I totally agree! An expensive guitar doesn‘t make you a better guitarist at all. However if you have reached a high level of playing where you play challenging repertoire , a master grade guitar makes the life much easier for you. But it shouldn‘t cost necessarily 50000€ of course. 😊
I disagree. A good guitar, can never be cheap. A good guitar, independent of one’s skills simply gives more pleasure than one made out of plywood. A good guitar has its own sound regardless. As someone who is in the pursuit of beauty, emotion, expressive power and so on, I would seek the best guitar I could afford. Which I have recently done, ordering a beauty from Juan Hernandez of the Esteve house, it was a close call with an Adalid model I admit). In Spanish, the expression ‘play the guitar’ is actually “touch the guitar’ (or any other instrument), so an instrument that is more responsive to touch, is the desirable one. It is perhaps like choosing a sexual / love partner. Avoid clumps! Logically, wood selected for tonal response, is going to be more expensive than other kinds. Selected wood must be matured, dried over years, decades. A €200 guitar uses cheap wood and is factory made. A master luthier’s guitar might use economical woods, but a luthier’s instrument is hand crafted and has been since Antonio Torres made the first one, but it is unlikely he would as his art and skills would be wasted and he would not be well rewarded for the effort and workmanship, craftsmanship. A good guitar makes learning both easier and more pleasurable, oh and faster too.
Going by the OP’s logic, why don’t we see virtuoso guitarists playing sub 500 Dollar/Pound/Euro guitars? They could save themselves a lot of money. Guitars are tools that allow guitarists to express themselves and the better you are at expressing yourself, the better guitar you need to do it. Most journeymen pro’s like myself are not rich, we make a living, but demand a high bar when it comes to guitars. By the same logic you’re not going to find a Concert Pianist onstage with a cheap upright. My wife’s Viola d’ Amore cost 25k. One of her bows cost 6k and in the world of violin bows, that’s not even close what some cost, but as a Swedish Riksspelman(Google it) she needs the highest quality instrument she can afford and she could have spent a lot more. Quality costs money.
Some guitarists will have one really nice expensive guitar as opposed to a bunch of lesser guitars that total more than the one expensive guitar. There is a point though where once you hit a threshold cost and quality that the increase is not leaps and bounds. I find this especially on steel strings where it’s just bling added that drives up the cost. This guitar really has a great bell like tone. Enjoy
@drummerboy1390 His take is a little absurd. It's spoken from a place of inexperience I think. When it comes to truly acoustic driven instruments such as classical guitar/ violin every higher end detail matters. When my daughter reached a certain level in violin we knew a handmade violin was going to help her grow as a musician, - mind you 300 is what we spent on her last bow, not 25k- The higher end instruments are going to provide everything better- and even help out in areas that you might struggle with- tone/ volume/ general clarity.
It's obvious that a better guitar will not make you a better player? . Every body in the 21 century knows that.Whar sort of comment it's that? If you live in USA or Europe Or some parts of Asia. Yes you can afford it! . It will take you 8 years to save the money but you will have it in the end. People spend lots of money in lots of unworthy things.
Such 'fine ears' but really struggles to tune the thing..she played in tune though.." the sound you are looking for" then plays a completely out of tune passage!!??
Too loud for my taste. If you play in a big concert hall, you will need such guitars. But if just for yourself, playing on such guitars is kind of tiring…
I understand your point! But actually the sweetness and the variability of the sound make me not getting tired of this guitar. And it‘s surely not as loud as a doubetop or lattice guitar as smallman. However the projection is quite immense.
Too loud? Tiring sound? I strongly disagree, if the guitar has loud / powerful sound then you can easily adjust your right hand stroke to play softer. But in weak guitars, no matter what you do you can't push the volume and stuck playing in a limited dynamic range

The sound!!! Marvellous
Beautiful. Incredibly resonant as well as loud; particularly in the higher register.
Glad you think so!
That is a magnificent sound for a guitar straight out of the box and to think that it will only sound better with playing. Magnificent - an excellent choice.
Very resonant..excellent sustain ! Pure tone ..Congrats! 🌹
Thanks!
Extraordinaria guitarra!!, a la distancia se siente que es un instrumento bellísimo en todos los sentidos. Saludos desde Perú.

Powerful and expressive instrument; lucky man!
Wow it sounds beautiful. Fantastic playing 👏👏👏👍

You are spot on. „The relation of the tones to each other“, is making this guitar to lovely to play. Which kind of Jazz guitar are you playing?

Sorry for this video😂
Hope you will get yours soon!
Beautiful👌❤
Beautiful guitar ❤
Che suono perfetto ragazzi
Wow this is really a BIG sound!!! Best regards from Russia :o)
It is! Greetings back to Russia
What song does the women play near the end of video?? Its so beautiful i'm in love with this peice!
It‘s a still unreleased piece by Karlijn Langendijk. It‘s called „wanderer“.
Congratulatios, It´s a beautiful guitrar, the top is spectacular, in two colors: Cedar and srpuce...also the rossette: You are like: "Kid with new shoes" (In spanish: "Como niño con zapatos nuevos"). Superb guitar!
Thank you very much!
such a wonderful guitar, so many different woods perfectly fit together. the sound is so sweet, what nylon strings are on the guitar?
Thanks a lot. Savarez High Tension in this video
I am thinking when you play it in a bit it will be even sweeter and richer in sound and have deeper body tone loudness of sound and projection. Really lovely guitar 😍I really like that Wenge wood on guitars made with it that I have heard never played one myself
Jouyan, this is the dream!!!
Beautiful sounds. May I know the piece that she plays?
Wow
I can only imagine what this is going to sound like, after it has been played in for a couple of years.
Congratulations on your new guitar! I was wondering why the back and sides are lined with maple and cypress. Is there an advantage to using wenge and then lining it, as opposed to just using solid maple and solid cypress? Is it the added weight of the lined wenge that is desirable? Again, amazing build and completely unique and in its own lane.
Congratulations on such a beautiful masterpiece. The sound is incredible, and the design has no words to describe it. Did you wait a lot to get it?
Yes I did!
Amazing instrument and nice playing as well ✨ here a new sub 🍾🥂304👍
Great Guitar, unusual the top, but can you say, hoch much does cost a such guitar? If it is not a secret. Thanks
❤️

What microphone 🎙️ are you using to record it?
It‘s actually the standard built-in microphone of a Sony A7 IV camera. Not a high quality mic!
@@Jouyan.T thanks for answering.. oh really? Surprisingly did a top quality sound…. I’m thinking of it now haha congrats for the beautiful guitar.
how much is he asking for his guitars?
7:55 - anyone one know what this piece is called? It’s beautiful! (As is the guitar!)
Hi there! It‘s an unreleased original by Karlijn Langendijk. It will be out soon.
Serenata - Franz Schubert
Is it wenge back&side? What wood for top?
Back and sides are wenge and maple(double) - The top is made of three pieces : cedar spruce cedar
@@Jouyan.T wenge with maple 🍁 I believe it will be very nice treble and deep bass
Which parts are made of wenge exactly? I didn't quite catch that.
Back and sides of the guitar. 😊
Very nice. I have wenge trim on my guitar, I think back and sides would look terrific. Congrats.
I didn’t know Mohamed Salah played classical guitar😂😂😂 sounds phenomenal never the less I love Schubert 👌
Not only a great footballer!👀
Can I borrow it?
Can he make oud for me
WG give a beefy bass tone. So u need skills to play the treble n fine touch for the bass... excellent guitar.
¡¡Increíble, equilibrado y puro sonido!! Felicidades.
¿Cómo se llama el tema interpretado por la dama aquí?
th-cam.com/video/JprtUfB1pKM/w-d-xo.html
Mo Salah?
I‘m working on it. Hairs still not curly enough
It breaks my heart that we humans can make things as beautiful as this guitar, yet at the same time make bombs that blow up children.
It‘s a sad truth…
Are you and Karlijn dating? 😁

Too loud for my taste. If you play in a big concert hall, you will need such guitars. But if just for yourself, playing on such guitars is kind of tiring…
a loud guitar makes my pianissimos sound beautiful. That'd be a great thing for me. Also would help me to play more relaxed, even for house concerts.
:D dynamics ?
