Marco about this guitar:
The thought behind the Ducale is both the result of a project I have always been working on and a tribute to my town and country: Venice and Italy. The colonnade of the palazzi in Venice inspired the rosette, while the hues of the purfling remind me of our flag.
The philosophy behind this model is to build a strong and light architecture of neck, sides, and back as a support for a light and responsive soundboard.
The idea is to have a reactive, versatile instrument like a contemporary guitar, but with a woody, changeable, warm, and silky sound.
The design of the fan bracing is original.
