Inside the Workshop: A Visit with Stirling Classical Guitar Luthier Ryan Gibson

In this special video, the Malvina Guitar Duo - Stewart Kelly and Adam Brown visit Stirling-based luthier Ryan Gibson to explore his philosophy and approach to guitar making. Ryan shares his thoughts on craftsmanship, materials, and the ethos that shapes each of his hand-built instruments. We also had the pleasure of playing four of his guitars—two of his premium concert models and two Estudio 37 student models—both as soloists and as a duo, giving a clear sense of the tonal range and character of his work. 🎼 Whether you’re a guitarist, luthier, or just love beautifully made instruments, we hope you enjoy this relaxed and insightful conversation paired with music. 👉 Learn more about Ryan Gibson Guitars: https://www.ryangibsonguitars.com 🎵 Visit Classical Guitar Scotland: https://www.classicalguitarscotland.c... 🪕 Guitars Featured in This Video: • Concert Model: Spruce & Ancient Oak 2025 • Concert Model: Cedar & Ziricote 2022 • Estudio 37: Spruce & Indian Rosewood 2024 • Estudio 37: Cedar & Indian Rosewood 2024 This video is used with the kind permission from Classical Guitar Scotland
