Claudio Pagelli is one of a handful of luthiers who combine a modern artistry with forward looking designs, materials, and techniques. His Anniversary 40 acoustic guitar is no different in this aspect. His design aesthetic is modern and stunning, but he doesn’t sacrifice function over form.
For the 40, the distinctive feature are the sound holes at the top near the neck. And the use of wenge for the neck block is unique while being functional and beautiful. Everything from the materials chosen to the understated but magnificently executed elements such as fret markers, bridge & pins, and headstock make this a modern acoustic with impeccable craftsmanship.
