Displaced from Hungary by World War II, Bela Gemza came to the U.S. in the late 1940s and strived to make great, original guitars and lutes from the finest materials in the basement of his modest home. Time has shown that he succeeded.
This wonderful Gemza guitar dates from what many believe was Bela’s “Golden period” of craftsmanship in 1973. It is an especially beautiful instrument thanks to the Indian Rosewood back and sides and Spruce top ornamented with beautiful Maple binding. The playability and tone of this instrument is exquisite. Gemza guitars project beautifully and this one offers a complete tone which has gained authority over time, like a fine aged red wine.
