Classical Guitars

Our high-end "SPEZIAL" guitars represent another important stage in our ongoing search for the perfect sound:
  • A bright, clear tone which combines good separation and warmth, which can produce a wide range of different tone colours, and which has excellent projection
  • Fast response and long sustain
  • Generous dynamic capacity for the guitarist from pp to ff
  • Even tone quality all over the fretboard
Our guitars are available in scale lengths from 580mm to 660 mm, with the body size varying in proportion to the scale length.

     
In addition to round soundholes, we also build guitars with oval
soundholes. This makes for interesting changes in tone.
Two different, striking headstock designs are the hallmark of Gropp guitars.


We have had good results from using local woods such as Flamed Maple, Oak, Bird's Eye Maple, Quarter-Cut Maple, and Cherry. Guitars made from these woods are also available at lower prices.

Apart from the sound of the guitar, our top priority is excellent playability. Our guitar necks are shaped to accommodate the player's hand and our fingerboards are slightly arched for clean and comfortable barré chords.
All our guitars, regardless of price, have a 20th fret (c³).
We also make left-handed instruments to order at no extra cost.

All our Concert, Artist and Top models are available with either Spruce or Cedar soundboards. All instruments are hand-finished with French polish.
Naturally, we use only top quality tuning machines and strings.
