Introducing: Enrico Bottelli

We’d like to welcome the latest guitar maker to the GSI lineup, the great master luthier Enrico Bottelli of Italy. This world-class builder has been constructing guitars since 1981 and began focusing exclusively on classical instruments in 1988, and has studied under famous luthiers like Jose Romanillos and Ervin Somogyi. A gorgeous example of his work has just arrived here to our offices in Santa Monica, and it’s an absolute masterpiece of a guitar – responsive, lightweight and beautifully traditional. We’ll have it listed properly on the GSI webstore later this week, but for now, take a sneak peek at these photos. Even the nut is inlaid!
