Hello, my name is Rui Silva and I am the owner and luthier of Rui Silva Guitars.
My workshop is located in northeastern Portugal, near Chaves, where I manufacture custom guitars and basses taking into account the best possible materials.
My instruments aim at ergonomics combined with the natural beauty of raw materials and the versatility of sound.
All the instruments are unique, depending on the taste and preference of each client, with whom i try to work closely to obtain the best result.
The instruments are handmade, combining some machinery and modern construction techniques with manual work, this way i do not attempt mass production, paying all attention to details…
