about venutti
A true luthier is not created but is born within. Bringing together experience and passion of fine woodworking creations, and a life devoted to music, Venutti Guitar was founded. Self though, Vagner Benevenuti developed his own techniques and style. However, building his own steel-string acoustic guitar came naturally, and was a true revelation.
"The learning is constant, the perception, feeling and the vision are always developing. Knowing my art inspires so many musicians make this my true calling."
Established in the deep south of the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil where nature provides the most special wood species in the world, Vagner started creating his instruments in 2013, emphasizing the process of discovering together with his clients what exactly they want or need in a guitar. He hand carves each neck individually, taking into account your hand size, playing style, and preferences.
"I work alone, one project at the time which allows me to carefully control each step of the construction process to deliver the perfect unique instrument to each and every client."

I am passionate about this instrument, it has a unique sound. Everyone who plays it's taken by the instant desire to have a Venutti! If I were to define it in one word, it would be...Privilege!
"
I love my Venutti! It was and is the best steel guitar I've ever played. Its sound is complete from bass to treble, perfect tuning. Not to mention the finish and design designed to play for hours, exactly how I need it. You can feel that it was made with great care. I say, without a shadow of a doubt, that it is one of the best guitars in the world and I am lucky to have one custom made for me. Eternal Gratitude!

Vagner is a master at what he does, if I say so it's because I believe that. A master is someone who has knowledge and, generously, transmits it with excellence. Before even playing my bass guitar, I learned about woodwinds, resonance, richness of harmonics, projection, sustain and clarity of sound; and how a solid construction translates into a unique instrument, with a lot of personality.
"
The good feel and quality in the finishes, in addition to the construction technique of these acoustic guitars and the abalone details define a unique and sophisticated style. The acoustic guitars crafted by Vagner express volume and projection and adapt to my studio and stage needs. I feel personality in the instrument, it inspires and fulfills me daily as a professional.
"
When Venutti proposed to build a acoustic guitar for me, I felt honored with the idea of receiving an instrument from a Brazilian luthier as renowned as he was. This was the first time in my entire life that I had the legitimate impression, when playing an acoustic guitar, that I now had in my hands a real concert instrument with the ability to transfer, without filter, my emotions into music.
"
When I met Vagner, it was loving at first sight! Not only for the excellence of the construction of the instrument, but also for his character. He wanted my sincere opinion about the instrument, then we designed the M200, the custom acoustic guitar model "from my way". Amazing how he synthesized everything I wanted on an acoustic guitar respecting my identity. The result? It becomes increasingly difficult to play on another acoustic guitar that is not my Venutti. I am grateful for the effort, commitment and love that Venutti has with musicians.
"
My L-00 Venutti has a balanced sound, impeccable finish, beautiful look and was built with the best wood in the world, Brazilian! It can't get much better than that!
"
Anyone who plays recognizes the difference between any acoustic guitar and a work of art. When I touched a Venutti for the first time, I had the feeling that I was in front of a rare piece. The finish, the woods, timbre and playability were unparalleled. I've had acoustic guitars from the main brands in the world and I've made several comparisons both on stage and in the studio. Today, I can safely say: I wouldn't trade my Venutti for any of them.
"
I've already had the opportunity and the pleasure of strumming the most diverse acoustic guitars around the globe. Among brands and luthiers, I can say that I have never played an instrument of Venutti quality. Today my acoustic guitar is inseparable and present in all my works.
"
The dedication and passion for lutherie combined with affection with wood, tools and machinery, make Venutti instruments fantastic works of art at the service of music. It's a great privilege to play on my Venutti 7 Strings, a super versatile and balanced acoustic guitar that has a beautiful timbre associated with excellent playability and great volume.
"
Guitar is part of the soul. A Venutti is just that. Created, made with all the love in the world, by a special and true person. Directly from the town where I grew up, matured and wrote most of my songs, it carries an extra truth, an affection and a differentiated sound. When it comes from the soul, from the heart, it is always the best way. Gratitude for having this acoustic guitar in my arms.
