Thanks to the quality of his work, Jan Tuláček has acquired a solid international reputation. He is based in Dobříš in the Czech Republic (Central Bohemia south of Prague). Here is what we can read about him on his website : « I started building guitars professionally in 2005 and at that time I was just ending my studies of classical guitar (Academy of Performing Arts in Prague). My main interest is creating close copies or replicas of good original guitars from the 19th century (so called romantic or Biedermeier guitars) for contemporary players. I study old original guitars in private collections and museums, work on repairs of period guitars and I enjoy the tradional hand tool style of work. To this date (2017) I've made over 100 guitars for guitarists and institutions - music conservatories and academies.

The guitar presented here corresponds to his René Lacôte model. It features all the exceptional qualities that have made this luthier's international reputation, both in terms of lutherie and in terms of sound. The soundboard is made of heat-treated spruce. The neck and heel are in ebony veneer on a limewood core. The headstock is made of beech with ebony veneer. The guitar has an ebony bridge, fingerboard and purflings. The pegs are Pegheds for more comfortable tuning. A superb instrument that reflects all the talent of this luthier.
