Bruno Bacci, Luthier
Bacci Guitars
“wood comes with a soul, which a skilled luthier must be able to capture and interpret.”
Bruno Bacci, a luthier from Tuscany, is a master of his craft. Born in 1975, he has always had a passion for creating musical instruments. Throughout his 20s and 30s, he honed his skills in a variety of fields, from metallurgy to marketing, carpentry and graphic design. This diverse background has allowed him to bring a unique perspective to his work as a luthier: wood comes with a soul, which a skilled luthier must be able to capture and interpret. From the smooth curves of the body to the precise tuning of the strings, every aspect has been carefully considered to ensure exceptional playability. Bacci's approach to instrument making is a testament to the importance of mixing innovation and tradition.When a customer walks out of Bacci's laboratory with their new guitar, they are not just leaving with a musical instrument, they are leaving with a piece of Tuscany and a bond that will last a lifetime.
The instruments are created with a sixth sense, with Bruno Bacci’s feeling the soul of the wood. This is why Bacci's instruments are truly one-of-a-kind and sought after by musicians worldwide.
The Bacci production is nestled in the heart of Tuscany, in Italy, between Florence and Lucca, a region known for its artistic heritage and masterpieces, home or artistic workshop to greatest artists throughout history, From Leonardo Da Vinci to Michelangelo. The Bacci Tuscan farmhouse, where Bruno lives, is a portion of a property that was once home to Giacomo Puccini, the renowned 19th century composer famous for his works such as La Boheme, Madama Butterfly and Turandot.
Bruno has created a space where the love of music, the appreciation of craftsmanship, and the enjoyment of life can come together.
