Wilgenbus Guitars

French violin maker on the île de la Réunion since 2001

"Most of my inspiration came from observing the elements, such as the water cycle and plant growth. This vision of nature allowed me to imagine the "Manche Intégral®".

I have symbolized the neck of the guitar as the trunk of a tree and the interior parts as the roots; so, I connected the neck and the interior parts to create continuity.

Like the cycles of nature..."

"I explore the sound and aesthetic qualities of the precious woods of the Indian Ocean, associated with the woods traditionally used in the manufacture of violins."

"I work by hand, with love and respect for wood, to give back all my passion to the musicians."
