The Anton Krutz instruments are the top line of instruments crafted at K.C. Strings. Master luthier Anton Krutz constructs these instruments with the help of the best makers at K.C. Strings. Only the highest grade European and American maple and spruce are used for these instruments, and are carefully selected by Krutz. The wood is then aged for five to ten years before the instrument making begins. Each instrument is professionally set-up by Krutz and his staff. These instruments are played by advanced students and professionals throughout the U.S. and Europe.
The uniqueness of the Krutz instruments comes from Anton's proprietary sealer and varnish. These produce the same quality of sound as the fine Italian instruments of the old masters.
