Welcome Breedlove Guitars! How About This For Starters? Passport C250/CM @ £499!
Breedlove C250/CM £499 The Breedlove C250/CM is the first guitar for me to present to you for 2012. Many guitar brands have their "pitch" - all the waffle that is designed to convince you that these are the ones which stand head and shoulder above the others. Well Breedlove is no different and their "pitch" DOES sound pretty [...]
Setting Up a Solid Body Electric Pre Sale With Trem (Free Service On All Guitars Sold)
As always it is really important to stress that I am not the technician and in writing up any kind of overview of what goes on in the workshop is dependant on my own personal knowledge (memory) of their work and my 16 years being around the workshop looking on with interest. In other words, don't pick holes in my descriptions!! [...]
Cort Earth 200. My most highly recommended mid range acoustic for 16 years.
Cort Earth 200 Its hard to believe that I started selling guitars 16 years ago and who would have known the impact the Cort brand would have on my future business life. Back then of course the brand name was Tanglewood. Every quality acoustic guitar Cort produced for the UK market was branded Tanglewood at that time (Tanglewood have not [...]
Cort CEC5. The Benchmark Electro Classical Guitar under £300
The Cort CEC5 is a damned fine electro classical guitar for the modern classical guitar player. The nut is 45mm so acoustic width. This slimmer design is incredibly popular which combined with the cutaway enables the player to feel at home swapping between their electric, acoustic and classical guitar. IE No shock to the system swapping between [...]
Cort Luce L450 C. My favourite acoustic under £300?
The Luce series were new for 2009 and have been incredibly popular ever since. Frankly, pound for pound this is possibly one of the best acoustic guitars Cort produce and has to be one of the finest little acoustics I have had the pleasure to come across. Not since playing my first Stonebridge guitar do I remember being so amazed at the tone of [...]
Left Handed G&L Tribute Guitars (ASAT & Legacy)
Left Handed G&L Tribute ASAT & Legacy Guitars Well as part of my renewed focus on all things left handed (well left handed guitars at least!) I checked my catalogue for the left handed ASAT and Legacy guitars, only to find.... no sign! I can only apologise - This however is now remedied of course. As you may know I am putting [...]
Left Handed Stonebridge Guitars. Call 01789 26 33 33
Left Handed Stonebridge Guitars Now in posting this note I have to wonder whether A) you already know how wonderful Stonebridge guitars are or not and B) you know my credentials not only as the leading Stonebridge specialist but also my reputation for sourcing only the nicest instruments available per price point (hence stocking [...]
Cort M520 Review. A Genuine Personal Favourite
Cort M520 Review The Cort M520 is a guitar I have wanted to bring to your attention for literally YEARS. Hopefully you may know how much I love the Cort M600 - and recently the trem based model which too is utterly wonderful - the Cort M600T. Well - the M520 is cheaper version of the M600 so maybe it seems a little strange that I would [...]
