Description
This unique piece is a master guitar based on the famous guitar by Johann Gottlieb Knößing 1807 (from the guitar museum in Markneukirchen).
Ricard Jacob Weißgerber was the first to use this beautiful guitar by Knößing as a model for his reproduction. He was followed by other guitar makers of the time and even today the Knößing guitar is one of the most popular romantic guitars and has been copied by many guitar makers.
The construction is ingenious … the guitar is particularly impressive because of the independent approach to the shape of the pegbox and has beautiful inlays and shapes.
This guitar can be attributed to the master guitar maker Johann Christian Friedrich Kessler from Markneukirchen, since according to museum records he borrowed the original Knößing guitar in 1925.
