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.”

One of one.
Months of work, every detail carefully considered. This guitar was built on commission by and it shows in every inch.

The body is carved from chestnut that spent eight decades aging inside Italian wine barrels. The neck carries a vine inlay in 50-year-old olive wood, branches that took half a century to grow, running all the way up to the brass truss rod cover, Paoletti stamped. The back is finished in deep wine red and cream. The top wrapped in Italian vegetable-tanned leather, wax-finished by hand.

Brass hardware throughout. Paoletti pickups. Not a single piece of plastic.

A guitar that carries the warmth of Italian craftsmanship in every detail.🇮🇹

Some guitars come together slowly.🍷

This 112 Chianti Wine started from the wood, then found its voice. A semi-hollow body that breathes, walnut P90s we build here, one by one.
Olive wood dots, small details that stay with you over time.

No plastic. Nothing extra.

📦Every day, a different guitar leaves our workshop.

For us, it’s never just about building an instrument.
