The All-Wood Double Top

A modern concert guitar with an all-wood double top, built for immediacy, projection, and control.

Sound & Response

The Wayra offers an immediate and highly responsive attack, allowing the player to shape sound with minimal effort.
Its dynamic range extends from delicate pianissimo to powerful projection, always maintaining clarity and control.

The instrument responds quickly under the fingers, making it especially suited for modern concert performance, where precision, color, and projection are essential.

The instrument feels alive under the fingers, responding instantly to even the smallest variations in touch...

All wood Double Top

At the core of the Wayra lies an all-wood double top construction.

Unlike most double-top guitars that rely on synthetic materials, this structure is built entirely from carefully selected woods. Each layer vibrates as part of the same organic system, allowing for a more natural response and tonal coherence.

The result is a sound that combines the power and immediacy of modern designs with the warmth and complexity of traditional instruments.

Development

The Wayra was developed through a close collaboration between luthier and performer, exploring the balance between traditional craftsmanship and the demands of the modern concert stage.
