Building Guitars
I started out building acoustic guitars in the mid sixties and, by the time I started business in the mid seventies, I'd come to realise that many of the players I found interesting also played electric guitar.

I soon came to believe that all guitars are "acoustic" - solid body electrics just aren't so loud!

A guitar string vibrates according to what it's attached to. Make a concrete guitar and it'll sound like a concrete guitar! Pickups simply amplify what the strings are doing, according to what they're attached to.

These days we mostly make acoustics and our neck-through body (plank neck) guitars, but I've included our bolt-on-neck models also. We made lots of these in the "selling to the shops" days and still take orders for them.

1. They don't make anywhere near the money people assume they do!
2. As their name looms larger, there are lots of manufacturers queuing up to give them free guitars
