“Tessarin
is Brazil's best kept secret: anyone involved in the guitar in Brazil
knows that the man is a magician. A finer craftsman it would be
impossible to imagine.” Paul Galbraith |
“I
had the opportunity of playing one of Jorge Raphael's guitar and I was
impressed by the sound, playability and tone, as well as the
finishing. All those features grant his instruments a place among the
best nowadays.” Ulisses Rocha |
“It
is known that the Brazilian concert guitars are improving and getting
better each year and competing in equal conditions with the best
instruments in the world. Antonio Tessarin is — without a doubt — one
the fundamental representatives of this new generation of Brazilian
luthiers and he has been making instruments of the highest quality.
Today, it's an honor and an enormous pleasure for me to play with a
guitar made by Antonio Tessarin.”
Paulo Bellinati |
“Since
the first guitar of his that I tried, I fell in love with the perfect
balance and the crystal-clear sound. As he progressed in his
development, I saw other great qualities emerge: beautiful projection,
volume, a lovely tone, great playability and an impeccable finishing — a
full-featured concert guitar. I consider Jorge Raphael to be one the
best luthiers Brazil has ever produced.” Alvaro Henrique |
“Tessarin guitars have been my faithful companions in performances and
on recordings for the last twelve years. They are beautiful instruments with all the qualities a player seeks: impeccable craftsmanship, superb projection, ease of playability and wonderful tone. It's no surprise to me that this master luthier's
instruments are
being sought after by players throughout the world.” Rick Udler |
