The last new guitar that we received from Simon Marty was in 2013 mostly because Simon has a long waiting list. Here is the chance to get a Spruce top / Indian rosewood guitar from Simon Marty just coming out of his workshop. It is really a dream guitar, the sound is pure, crystal-clear and mellow.

Simon Marty luthier:

Simon Marty guitars are among the very best. It has a big sound and wonderful tones with a huge string separation and crystal-clear trebles. The playability is great. The different types of wood used are wonderful.

No surprise that so many concert players play Marty classical guitars.

His classical guitars:

An obsessive and consuming interest led to Simon departing from his career as a research scientist to build guitars full-time (engineering now being a spare-time activity) and to continue their evolution. While Simon is not interested in building fully traditional instruments, the aesthetics and fundamental Mediterranean quality that attracted him to the guitar in the first place remain the guiding principle of his work.

Simon has developed the radial bracing concept. His tops are not as thin as with the usual Australian guitars. This thickness gives the sound a woody natural sound which is producing a lot of overtones. The notes are clear but also plain and creamy with a very long sustain.

What is very particular is the closeness to the traditional classical guitar when we play the guitar. The sound is produced is like on a traditional classical guitar with the same dynamic which gives the player a whole range of expression possibilities.

His guitars are played by numerous artists such as – Irina Kulikova, Jérémy Jouve, Karine Schaupp – who choose his guitars for their musicality.
