For Classical guitars Stephen Marchione use his original design based on historic models that he feel are successful, utilizing standard dimensions that musicians are comfortable with and understand. He’s taken these parameters and crafted a historically rooted yet modern and satisfying instrument.

This beautiful Classical Guitar is constructed face down, with hot hide glue and on an engineered Solera in the traditional Spanish method.

We only use Hot Hide Glue in construction, and he Hand Plane all surfaces prior to glue-up. His classical guitars are French polished and the setup will astound you.

The Classical design combines the ease of playability and tonal accuracy of a Gilbert guitar, the warmth and richness of tone of a Fleta, and the power and projection of a Rodriguez Jr. guitar from the 1970s.

After all, the musician is the one who creates their art with the guitar that he make. He want your experience to be as seamless and expressive as possible and feel as if the guitar is part of you. For Marchione Guitars, this is a powerful and seductive musical instrument that inspires creativity and a desire to sing with the guitar.
