Our Portoflio
Here you can find a selection of the guitars that are built, in stock and ready to play, as well as examples of the sorts of custom builds that can be commissioned.
Each Lutra guitar is individually handcrafted in my Berkshire workshop using characterful English tone woods like walnut, cherry, lacewood, and even black oak. Where possible, I balance using woods favoured for their acoustic properties like spruce soundboards with locally sourced and reclaimed woods, chosen for their story as much as their sound.

Florence
Florence is a wonderfully compact parlour guitar. A tiny guitar like this should not sound this good. The warm tone is produced by a red cedar top, adorned with a sunflower rosette, a cherry back and sides with a mahogany neck. Compact and easy to play.
Florence already has a happy owner but is available to try by appointment.
