At Iulius Guitars, I handcraft acoustic guitars with an innovative design approach and unique features, creating superior musical instruments. With over 25 years of experience as an acoustic engineer, I bring profound knowledge of acoustics principles to my work.
This extensive background allows me to study the behavior of acoustic guitars, experiment with new designs, new technologies and building solutions. The four models in the Iulius Guitars catalogue are completely original, incorporating several innovations for improved playability, acoustics, and preamplified sound output. Each guitar is a testament to my dedication to pushing the boundaries of guitar design.
Explore the major innovations that define Iulius Guitars in the Technologies section. For more in-depth theory, visit My research page, where you can find many articles I’ve published over the years on luthiery and audio, along with selected classics of the literature.
Furthermore, I recently published a manual on acoustic guitar design and measurements, titled “Mastering the sound of the acoustic guitar“, and I regularly hold webinars and conferences to share my knowledge with other builders, exchange experiences, and connect with the global guitar-making community.
As a one-man workshop, Iulius Guitars produces a limited number of instruments each year, usually on order. Please refer to the catalogue on my website and the page pricing and ordering for more information.
Special thanks to Maurizio Mazzenga, responsible for the graphic design of Iulius Guitars, and Arnaud Decillia, electronic engineer. Their exceptional expertise helps define many aspects of Iulius instruments. I am grateful to share this passion with such good friends and to be continually challenged to do my best.
My life is dedicated to designing and building objects that serve music, following my inspirations and experimenting with new possibilities without limits or concerns. I aim to create the perfect instrument, one that fits your hands and fulfills your soul.
