"I am a South Australian classical guitar maker specialising in lattice braced carbon fibre reinforced guitars. I have been building guitars professionally since the year 2000, but I have been making guitars and other instruments since 1990. My workshop is fully dedicated to building classical guitars and is equipped with specialised self-made jigs and woodworking machines. I use nothing but the finest timbers such as; Brazilian rosewood, Indian rosewood, spruce, western red cedar, Brazilian mahogany, African and Indian ebony. Design features of my guitars include; an arched-braceless back (for volume and sound projection), domed soundboard braced with lattice and carbon fibre (making the soundboard light weight), 20 frets (without obstructing the sound hole), and an original headstock and rosette design which adds to the instruments uniqueness. I produce the very best results in sound (high volume, tonal and long sustained notes) by incorporating the most technologically advanced methods and materials into the classical guitar. Schaller HG1 tuners are standard and a liteflight hard case is supplied with the guitar. My goal in building guitars is to always produce the very best results in sound quality and workmanship, to ensure the players absolute satisfaction. I feel privileged to be in this profession that I enjoy so much and it brings me much satisfaction to make guitars and hear them being played in different classical and world music styles.

As a classical guitar player myself who has studied guitar performance at university level, I enjoy the sound and playability of my guitars. I hope you can also play one of my instruments to hear and feel for yourself the special character they have.

There is an extensive list of professional players and teachers that are enjoying my guitars such as:

  • Jozsef Eotvos
  • Martin Myslevecek
  • Sandor Szabo
  • Andras Csaki
  • Pal Palikovits
  • David Pavlovits

and many more."
