New Arrivals
Spring is here at Bronte beach. It’s brought some perfect weather and some great new guitars. I finally received delivery of the new Robin Moyes and Kim Lissarrague guitars.
Robin Moyes who has worked with Simon Marty and made guitars for Tommy Emmanuel and Slava and Lenny Grigoryan, is finally in full swing producing his own classical arch back guitars. They have a huge tone and are beautifully crafted. They feature a radial braced cedar top, slightly raised fingerboard and Gilbert tunners. I've now posted MP3's of the guitars embeded in the photos, I hope they don't take to long to download.
I also have a Dieter Hopf La Portenosa the same model that Alexandre Lagoya used. It’s very even and responsive and beautifully made. Also of note is the 1996 Manuel Reyes (senior) You don’t often see Reyes classicals. This is one of the best Cedar Spanish guitars I’ve had the pleasure of owning. It’s very reasonably priced due to a repaired crack on the top.
