classical guitars built to meet the needs of professional players.
Michael Edgeworth is a talented English luthier, building classical guitars. The design of his guitars are a natural progression of the fine traditions established by renowned English makers like Paul Fischer and David Rubio. They are traditionally built, offering a wide palette of tone colours, strong trebles and projection. Performers can be confident that precisely their intended interpretation of the music will be heard by the audience. The Edgeworth classical guitar philosophy is one of forever improving and refining the instruments.
The Edgeworth guitar workshop recently relocated to Bloomsbury in London, ideally placed within reach of the Royal Academy of Music, the Royal College of Music, Trinity Laban conservatoire and Guildhall School of Music. Michael is looking forward to gaining many insights from collaborating with the students, teachers and professional classical guitar players who are part of the vibrant London classical music scene.
Michael offers classical guitar setups from his workshop in Bloomsbury. Repairs are taken at discretion.
A Classical Guitar Maker
Michael started this blog, A Classical Guitar Maker, five years ago for guitarists to read about classical guitar-related topics from the perspective of a luthier. Classical guitar players and makers tread a parallel path in their pursuit of great musical heights. Having learned a great deal from interviews and podcasts featuring classical guitarists, he hopes that his perspective can be similarly helpful.
So far Michael has covered topics such as the development of my concert classical guitar, the different guitar finishes - French polish, oil, and lacquer. Some of his recent activities have included building a guitar in collaboration guitar with two other English luthiers, and displaying work at classical music festivals such as Brno International Classical Guitar Festival and West Dean classical guitar festival. There is an endless array of topics to discuss regarding handmade classical guitars.
