Siccas Luthiers - Craftsman Series by Stephen Eden - Lattice
About the luthier
Siccas Luthiers was founded by brothers Mirco and Manuel Sicca, who have dedicated their lives to the art of classical guitars, inspired by their late father Mario Sicca. Mario excelled not only as a soloist, but also as a respected professor at the Stuttgart Musikhochschule, and as a passionate luthier and collector. His deep love for the instrument continues to guide their vision.
Rooted in the experience behind Siccas Guitars, a reference for hand-made instruments by the world’s finest luthiers past and present, Mirco and Manuel set out to create guitars that reflect the same high standards of sound, aesthetics, and craft. This vision led to the creation of Siccas Luthiers, a project shaped by unique designs developed in-house by a team of experienced luthiers and players.
The Craftsman Series stands out as the result of close collaboration with renowned guitar makers from around the world. Each instrument emerges from a practical and detailed working process in which designs, methods, and acoustic goals are openly discussed and refined together. This cooperative method allows Siccas Luthiers to integrate the makers’ individual expertise into one of a kind instruments that combine reliability, musicality, and a clear respect for the classical guitar’s heritage.
About the guitar
The Craftsman Series represents the essence of collaboration at Siccas Luthiers, uniting the experience behind Siccas Guitars with the knowledge and artistry of exceptional makers from around the world. This model is the result of an intensive partnership with the renowned luthier Stephen Eden. It was conceived with a clear objective: to create an instrument of impressive power and projection while maintaining the expressive depth and flexibility expected by demanding players.
At the heart of the design is a carefully engineered lattice bracing system that reduces the mass of the soundboard. This lighter, more efficient structure enables the guitar to react quickly to even the most delicate touch, enhancing responsiveness, dynamic range, and overall playability. Despite its modern architecture, the instrument preserves a refined Spanish character that brings warmth, clarity, and balance to the voice.
A low air body resonance of E has been achieved, which results in a strong sense of presence and openness throughout the registers. It gives the trebles a dark and slightly mysterious quality, allowing them to bloom with depth while remaining forgiving during less ideal right hand conditions. The basses benefit from this resonance as well, providing a full and supportive foundation without overshadowing the upper voices, so phrasing develops naturally across the entire instrument.
This model reflects Stephen Eden’s meticulous craftsmanship and the shared commitment to excellence that defines the Craftsman Series. It offers players a powerful, responsive, and expressive instrument that remains rooted in the tradition and spirit of the classical guitar.
