Infinia Guitars

Built in Europe by a small, dedicated team, Infinia guitars are crafted for prog, fusion and any boundary-pushing style that demands precision and a tight, controlled sound. Each instrument is meticulously made using high-quality materials and sustainable practices, setting a new benchmark for forward-thinking guitar building.

A vision from industry innovators

Founded in 2023 by Brian van Zwietering, Daan van Dijk and Maikel van der Wel, Infinia brings together serious expertise and creative ambition. The trio has collaborated with some of the industry’s most forward-thinking designers, including Daria and Simon Padalka, plus Sheldon Dingwall — who even created an exclusive Infinia original called the Titan.

Reviving iconic Padalka designs

Many of Infinia’s electric guitars breathe new life into classic Padalka models. By acquiring and reintroducing these discontinued models, Infinia has preserved their legacy following Padalka’s relocation from Russia to Canada and the subsequent evolution of their lineup.

Built with integrity, true to the original vision

Daria Padalka set out clear conditions for the revival: uncompromising quality, strong design integrity and absolutely no mass production shortcuts. Every guitar had to meet Padalka’s exacting standards while staying true to the spirit of the originals. The result? The return of two rad designs — the Ceres (formerly the Padalka CS) and the headless Neptune — reborn with the same precision and artistry that made them stand out in the first place.

CMR: Controlled Mass Reduction

Infinia’s Controlled Mass Reduction (CMR) system is a smart, player-first approach to weight relief. By carefully adjusting each body based on the natural density of the wood, Infinia ensures consistent, comfortable weights across every instrument without sacrificing tone. The result is a guitar that feels just right on the strap, while still delivering a full, resonant sound.
