Carpinteri Guitars is a small Italian luthier shop based in Canicattini Bagni, Sicily, founded by builder Corrado Carpinteri. The workshop traces back to Carpinteri's first completed guitar in 2008; he established the business as CQuadro Guitar Works in 2012 and rebranded it under his own name in 2016. The shop produces handmade electric guitars with an emphasis on traditional luthiery techniques, custom builds, and a 3D guitar configurator that lets buyers spec instruments to order.
The brand drew international attention for The Bohemian, a faithful replica of Brian May's Red Special that became one of its signature offerings. Other models in the lineup include the Megara, and Carpinteri also builds T-style and offset designs alongside one-off custom commissions. The shop is known within enthusiast circles for its work on Red Special-style instruments and for hardware choices including KTS titanium saddles, which Carpinteri himself has publicly endorsed.
