Comments This guitar is build with a focus on a traditional voice with dark basses. A big sound with a great balance between darkness and brightness. The sustain is long and very homogenous with a wooden sound. Air body frequency around F#. All French polished. Hiscox hardcase included.

Johannes Kitseli’s workshop is located in Ängelsberg, 150 km northwest of Stockholm in Sweden.

He started building his first guitar in 1984 and then professionally in 2007. In the same year he met the Greek guitar builder Giannis Paleodimopoulos where he visited his workshop regularly and was inspired by his building philosophy and construction techniques. Johannes experimented a lot in the coming years with the modern guitar, but with a focus on the traditional sound.
