What musicians are saying about Vorreiter instruments:

"I have had the pleasure to play on Florian's classical guitar and was very pleased with the instrument. At first sight, its aesthetics were pleasing to the eye, with straightforward lines, and upon taking a closer look, I fully appreciated the very high quality workmanship exhibited by the instrument. This guitar felt quite light and immediately comfortable to hold in the playing position. As I played, the neck felt very natural and was very even to the touch throughout. The instrument responded wonderfully, whether I played softly or fast and I got a surprisingly good volume out of it, despite the low action of the strings. Florian's guitar simply felt natural to play on, providing a great musical experience!"

I have known Florian Vorreiter for two years. In my capacity as both a professional guitarist (who has had the good fortune to demo Mr. Vorreiter’s creations) and professional photographer (who has provided the photography for Mr. Vorreiter’s website and promotional materials), I am uniquely qualified to comment on the aesthetic and musical quality of his instruments.
Florian’s guitars are not only innovative for the sake of innovation. They are, in fact, the product of a long, disciplined education [...] rooted in ancient European tradition, driven by a fiercely intelligent, seeking mind. The attention to detail, unique aesthetic, and truly impressive sonic quality evident in his guitars far outstrips what I have seen in the work of most other young luthiers of his station.
In addition, I believe Florian possesses a certain single-minded dedication and headstrong belief in his own work, overshadowed only by his humility and ever-present eagerness to learn. He also has a strong desire and affinity for teaching others what he has learned. I believe he has a tremendous future ahead of him, and, if he keeps at it, could well be regarded some day as one of Canada’s finest instrument makers, full stop.
