Marco Bortolozzo was born in the early 80's in a small town in Italy, in the region of Venice. Attracted at a very young age by manual work, he studied industrial design, where he learned the various phases of the construction process, which would serve him well in his work as a guitar maker. After finishing his studies he met the Milanese luthier Dario Pontiggia, a meeting that would be decisive in his decision to become a luthier.
This beautiful guitar by Marco Bortolozzo is a copy of the 1937 Hauser owned by Andrés Segovia. The aesthetics, both sober and elegant, is successful, the woods are of the first choice and the craftsmanship is well done. On the sound level, the notes are dense, colored and rich in harmonics, the tone is soft, expressive and lyrical. A superb guitar with a singular and endearing character.
