Enrico Bottelli - 1988
Enrico Bottelli was born in Milan, Italy, in 1961 and is one of Europe’s most respected and renowned luthiers. He gained his first experience in guitar building under the guidance of master luthier Carlo Raspagni in 1981 and began building classical guitars as a professional luthier in 1988. However, he not only makes excellent instruments, which are appreciated by professional musicians and collectors worldwide for their elegant, very appealing musical attributes, refined beauty, and precise craftsmanship. He also passes on his knowledge and experience to some very talented luthiers by training them.
Instrument number 20 marks an early point in Enrico’s distinguished career as a guitar maker, showcasing his profound understanding of classical guitar craftsmanship. Constructed with a cedar soundboard and Indian rosewood back and sides, this guitar exemplifies the exceptional clarity that Enrico’s instruments are renowned for, despite the typical warmth associated with cedar. Now 36 years old, the guitar remains in good condition. It bears several thin, stable cracks on the soundboard and exhibits crackling in the polyurethane finish, a common occurrence with age. These marks of time do not detract from the instrument’s performance but instead add character to a guitar that has matured beautifully over the decades.
