Picture
Carlo Ravizza Milan, 1906       

Carlo Ravizza (1882-1959) was a student of Romeo Antoniazzi and worked in Milan. He primarily built guitars, although he also made violins, violas, and cellos.

Ravizza's work is valued for spontaneity and personal style. He typically used a yellow varnish and often branded his instruments with initials on the back plate under the button and the front plate under the fingerboard.

This instrument is Ravizza's personal model. The back is quilted maple, and the label is original.
