Baroque guitar, Fantaisie model, entirely handmade by luthier Régis Floury in July 2026.
The instrument is inspired by the famous guitar built by René Voboam in 1641, currently preserved and displayed at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, England. Its design draws on some of the characteristic elements of 17th-century French Baroque guitars, both in its construction and decoration.
The soundboard is made of spruce. The body is constructed from different strips of wood, separated by purfling in ebony, maple, purpleheart and walnut, creating a combination of colours and materials characteristic of the marquetry found on this type of instrument. The neck combines different hardwoods and lightweight woods.
The guitar is entirely decorated with marquetry, including the neck and pegbox. The rosette is made of parchment, following a traditional technique used in the construction of historical guitars.
The instrument has 15 frets and a 650 mm vibrating string length.
This is a new, entirely handcrafted instrument designed for the performance of Baroque guitar repertoire, combining research into historical models with a construction conceived for the modern musician.
Price: €3,500
A rigid hard case is available for an additional €250.
The guitar is located in Vigo, Galicia, Spain, and can be viewed and played at the workshop by appointment.

Late Medieval/Early Renaissance 6 course lute built by Alexander Hopkins in Madrid in 2025. It is unusual to see a Medieval lute with 6 courses, or a Renaissance lute with this Medieval design, but it is modeled after the lute in Merry Company by Candlelight (Fröhliche Gesellschaft bei Kerzenschein) by the Flemish Baroque painter Jan Cossiers (1600–1671). It can be used with fingers or plectrum and play any Medieval or 6 course rep. I really like the sound with a plectrum. The tone is warm and not too bright, but penetrating in an ensemble setting. I would love to keep it but I’m taking a slightly different direction artistically. It is a top quality lute that I have used on professional recordings and soundtracks, and plenty of live performances. It is still in great shape and sounds fantastic. It comes with a custom made semi soft gig bag. I bought it for 3150 euros (almost $3,700usd) and paid the shipping and tariffs. I’m asking for $3,600 plus shipping if outside the United States. Shipping is included within the US.
