Coming Soon: Antonio Zwirn’s Award-Winning Guitar

A new instrument is on its way to GSI — the guitar by Croatian luthier Antonio Zwin, winner of 2nd prize at the VIII Antonio Marin Montero Guitar Building Competition in Granada, Spain.

The guitar arriving at our store is the very same instrument that received the award in Granada, where we had the opportunity to hear it performed live. Built in the traditional Spanish style, it features a spruce soundboard and demonstrates Zwirn's impressive craftsmanship. This particular instrument is named "Aroma."

Antonio Zwirn has been building instruments for over 20 years, dedicating more than a decade specifically to making classical guitars. His work reflects a deep understanding of traditional methods, combined with a clear personal style.

Below, you can see a photo of the finished guitar taken during the competition in Granada, as well as a few photos documenting its building process.
