  Welcome to my Ebay pages where you will find superior quality classical guitars at affordable prices. Classical  guitars have been my passion for many years; as a collector, restorer and dealer of vintage instruments. If you are a classical guitar enthusiast too then  you may have already come across auctions at my   Ebay  pages where I have acquired an excellent  reputation with 100% feedback. Unable to always meet customer demand for quality vintage and used instruments I decided to launch my own label classical guitars; new instruments  that I have personally selected for build quality, playability, and most of all superior sound. Whether you are just starting out or heading towards Grade 8 in your guitar studies, you will find an instrument that will meet your needs in my model range. Every guitar I supply has been scrutinized inside and out for build quality and then carefully set up in my workshop to provide optimum playability. All instruments feature solid spruce or cedar tops and  solid bone string saddles and nuts. Whether you are buying a student or concert  class instrument, I guarantee 100% satisfaction or your money back. Hence my promise 'Quality  instruments that you will want to play and play'. Where do I source such instruments? The same place that leading makers such as Takamine ,Yamaha, Aria and Ibanez have some of their top selling models built.... China. In October 2013 I visited the 'Music China' expo in Shanghai where guitar makers from around Asia exhibit their instruments. As a repairer of guitars for some 30 years I was astounded by the level of craftsmanship that went into the construction of  the guitars on display, some of which had been cross sectioned to reveal the attention to build quality on the inside of the instrument. I was astounded also by  the performance quality, comparable to some of the best  instruments in my personal collection which includes high end concert guitars from Spain, Germany and Japan.  My visit to the expo was a complete revelation and  my opinion now is that the quality of many guitars being built in China today is equal to Japanese instruments built during the golden era of the 1970s. Just as Japanese master luthiers such as Masaru Kohno,  Masaki Sakurai and Ryoji Matsuoka came to attain world recognition during that  period, I believe that Chinese luthiers will achieve equal status; luthiers such as Yulong Guo (Google  'Yulong   Guo  Guitar') whose  instruments  are now reviewed to great acclaim in the west. Mr Guo is  technical consultant to the workshop in China where I source my instruments and I have one of his incredible guitars in my collection.   Now you have the opportunity to discover for yourself the quality and performance of guitars that more than rival instruments from more traditional origins such as Spain, Germany, Japan and Latin America.  So confident am I in the quality of the guitars I supply that every instrument carries a 3 year warranty against defects arising from defective materials or workmanship. A guitar, and especially a classical guitar, is  a very tactile and personal instrument and I wouldn't deny that the best place to buy one is from a shop or a guitar studio where you can try and compare instruments before buying; but shops are expensive to run and prices will reflect  that. Selling on-line allows me to keep costs low and pass on the  savings to you; and I offer a 30 day trial period on all purchases; if any guitar you buy doesn't live up to your expectations just return it for a refund or exchange. In addition, personal callers are always welcome by appointment; just send me an Ebay message. My studio is 15 minutes from the Dartford Thames crossing; come and try any guitar listed and compare it to some very expensive instruments from my personal collection. I look forward to sharing my passion for classical guitars  with you and hope you will add me to your favourite sellers list.
