Stenzel Guitars & Ouds

This guitar is typical for my style of instrument making: every aspect to best serve its function, the material of highest quality and the aesthetics an refined understatement.

The guitar has, of course, all features of all Stenzel guitars: double-warped fingerboard, improved intonation, multi-dimensional asymmetry of the soundboard construction, etc.. A full list of the unique features can be found here.

I am a bit tired trying to describe the subtleties of sound with words; suffice to say its sound meets my highest standards. Please go to the SOUND page for sound samples.

As to what can be perceived with the eye, there are (at least) three things worth mentioning about this guitar:
The extraordinary quality and beauty of the African rosewood (dalbergia baronii), the spruce from "The tree" and the hand-engraved Scheller tuners.
