Luthier France & Luxembourg

Je m'appelle Criman et j'ai fait de ma passion pour la musique et le bois un véritable art. Dans mon atelier de Florange (France), près du Luxembourg, je donne vie et restaure la voix d'instruments exceptionnels : les guitares.

Pour moi, chaque guitare a une histoire. Certaines viennent me voir pour des réparations, d'autres cherchent à retrouver leur éclat grâce à des restaurations, et certaines prennent forme de A à Z, devenant des guitares sur mesure, créées exactement comme les musiciens en rêvent.

Je crois qu'une guitare n'est pas seulement un instrument, c'est une part de l'âme de l'artiste. C'est pourquoi je mets attention, patience et passion dans chaque projet, afin que le résultat soit non seulement fonctionnel, mais aussi une petite œuvre d'art.

Si vous êtes en France ou au Luxembourg et que vous recherchez un luthier qui comprend vos besoins et donne une voix à votre instrument, je vous invite à découvrir l'univers de Criman Guitars.

Story:

At the high temperature of the stage, in the fire of the show, the wood seems to melt into a giant drop of pure water squeezed by the strong and old bark.
