Description:
"La Trentina" - An uncompromising handcrafted masterpiece

This guitar was made entirely by hand by the Italian luthier Luca Nunzio Caira (artistic name Nunzio Kairòs), founder of the Kairòs Lutherie brand. Luca Nunzio is a visionary luthier who pushes the aesthetic and structural boundaries of the classical guitar through continuous experimentation and in-depth studies he then translates into articles published monthly on his site.

"La Trentina" was built entirely by hand using exclusively chisels, rasps, and hand planes. No CNC machinery or automated processes were employed in its creation.

"La Trentina" was meticulously designed to meet the most complex technical and expressive needs of contemporary classical guitarists. With this instrument, the aim was to fuse two seemingly distant acoustic and performance worlds: structurally, the guitar maintains the extraordinary lightness and the immediate, almost explosive, response that flamenco players typically demand from their instruments. At the same time, it preserves the entire tonal depth, long sustain, and clear polyphony expected from a true concert classical instrument. This delicate and perfect acoustic balance is not by chance but is achieved through a wise and selective graduation of the soundboard thickness. Each wood portion is artisanal calibrated to maximize vibrational freedom where needed, without compromising stability. It is complemented by a custom internal lattice bracing system designed to be extremely reactive.

Technical and construction details:
- Bridge: 12-hole, optimized string angle incidence to maximize energy transfer to the soundboard.
- Nut width: 52 mm
- Scale length: 650 mm
- Fretboard: silver/nickel at 18%
- Hand-carved wooden rosette
- The entire instrument is hand-finished with a premium oil finish. This targeted luthier’s choice enhances the natural three-dimensionality and the grain of the Walnut, while allowing the soundboard to vibrate freely without dampening from thick or opaque coatings. The result is an explosive acoustic projection and a purely organic tactile experience.
