David Rubio/Paul Fischer (1971)

A rare chance to own a Rubio/Fischer workshop guitar, signed by David Rubio and stamped Paul Fischer MCMLXXI. A point of history when the most famous British luthier of the time shared his workshop with the very best up and coming luthiers, later famous in their own right. Fischer joined in 1969, so this guitar was two years into the collaboration. Note - not all workshop guitars were actually signed by David Rubio, mostly just showing a label. A fine investment as well as a top class musical in...

Rik Middleton (2012)

Rik Middelton from Coventry gave up teaching in 1994 and become a full time luthier. This guitar is different from the norm, in that it is a quality concert guitar in a small scale. Its heritage is obviously that of Torres/Hauser merging to classical ‘parlour’. The wood-working and materials are top class and attention is drawn to the attractive eyes on the back. The 60.5mm scale is ideally suited to a player with small hands but I have to say my medium size found the guitar comforta...

Ramirez SP (2007)

In 2003 Amelia Ramirez further refined the model and that is what we have here. It is beautifully made with top class wood working (even inside) and timbers.

Michael Lazar (2015)

The guitar is particularly comfortable to play with a very well shaped mahogany neck and raised fingerboard. The looks are modern with an original ‘plantia’ and colourful inlays. The compensated nut and saddle assures the set up and true intonation on a 'Gilbert' style bridge. A very rewarding gui...
