About me

Hi my name is Ruedi, I was born in Switzerland and when I left school I qualified to be a tool maker and later a gunsmith. When I was 16 I had the fortune to meet the famous flamenco player Manitas De Plata and this was the trigger for me to build my first flamenco guitar.

I later gravitated towards building classical guitars and in recent years I have experimented further and built many other kinds of instruments such as: Cello, viola, violin, Harps and many more.

I have been making guitars since 2002 and I still very much enjoy making them.
