Ivan Bruna - 2024 64 cm
About the luthier
Ivan Bruna is an Italian guitar maker based near Livorno, where he builds concert instruments entirely by hand in the classical tradition. After graduating from the Scuola di Liuteria di Milano, he completed a formative apprenticeship under master luthier Enrico Bottelli. Bruna's instruments reflect an analytical, sound-focused approach rooted in deep listening and precision. Rather than pursuing novelty for its own sake, he refines traditional methods to serve clarity, richness, and reliability. His guitars are known for their structural refinement, visual coherence, and a bold tonal core that maintains clarity across a wide dynamic range.
About the guitar
Completed in 2024, this traditionally built concert guitar showcases Ivan Bruna’s commitment to tone and detail. The top is made of master-grade spruce, paired with Indian rosewood back and sides, all under a warm French polish that enhances both texture and colour. With a scale of 640 mm and a 49 mm nut, the neck sits comfortably in the hand, shaped for fluid movement across the fingerboard.
Tonally, the guitar delivers a rich and saturated voice with impressive depth. Its heavy tonal weight gives every note presence and gravitas, while the upper register remains brilliant and clear. The air-body frequency sits around F♯/G, contributing to the warmth and resonance. Articulation is precise, and the sound blooms with a wealth of colour options, making it a highly versatile instrument for a wide variety of repertoire. Subtle visual flourishes in the purfling and rosette round out a guitar that is as sophisticated in sound as it is in appearance.
Condition
This instrument is in excellent condition with only minimal signs of play. It has no cracks or repairs and remains structurally and cosmetically well preserved.
