In a previous life Andrea Stanzione was an electrician... He also graduated from the lutherie school of Milan. He began his activity as a guitar maker with restorations and started to build instruments, combining this activity with that of a carpenter. In 2009, "in the middle of the journey of his life" (as he writes himself), he meets Enrico Bottelli, who will change the course of things. They will work together for four years, during which time he will learn and work with excellence. After other detours in life, Stanzione decided to make lutherie his profession, his workshop is located in the Villapizzone district of Milan.
This guitar is very beautiful both aesthetically and sonically. The woods are of the best choice with a very nice satinwood for the back and sides. The workmanship is superb as well as the design of the purfling and the rosette. The resonance frequency of the guitar body is very low (around E/E flat), which gives it a deep, woody and very expressive tone. The notes are round, vibrant and reactive. An exceptional instrument that shows all the talent of this luthier.
