Amidst the enchanting beauty of the Tuscan hills, where Fabrizio Paoletti's family used to produce Chianti red wine, old barrels of reclaimed chestnut wood revealed their potential for carving instruments of exquisite sound and persistent taste – or sustain. Fabrizio's discovery and vision had chestnut wood become Paoletti Guitars' trademark, as for over 15 years now we have kept using old wine ba
rrels' chestnut wood, giving a whole new life to it. Each guitar we create is a labor of love, meticulously handcrafted in Italy by our skilled artisans who infuse every detail with care and expertise. Using only the finest materials, building and assembling each part of your guitar in-house, we ensure that every instrument is an environmentally conscious masterpiece of quality. Immerse yourself in the creative process of our custom shop, as you collaborate with our team to bring your vision to life. From selecting the perfect wood essence for your fretboard, to choosing custom hardware and finishes or intricate inlays, every aspect of your guitar can be tailored to your unique preferences and style.
“Here lies the history of every guitar we craft – a tale woven from vineyards, the artistry of winemakers, and the timeless beauty of wood. It's a privilege to etch enduring memories into instruments, ready to accompany your journey with years of quality play. Their destiny rests in your hands.”
