STAY SAFE PEEPS! With seeming craziness all around us at the moment, we have been busy working on our Facebook Fibonacci Video Group page, to help blow away those Coronavirus lockdown blues...... Ambassador Oil Our wonderful Ambassador, hand finished in oil by James Millman, and fitted with a floating KRIVO pickup, with a wonderful performance by Nigel Price. Ambassador Nitro Another video we put together of the Ambassador, finished in nitrocellulose bister sunburst, with a carved spruce top, carved flame maple back and sides, and fitted with a Jon Dickinson floating PAF. Another wonderful performance from Nigel Price. Californian A Californian in sienna sunburst here, ready to be fitted with a floating Jon Dickinson pickup....and you guessed right, Nigel Price doing the biz again. Fibonacci Fibonacci Some very fine playing by Les Davidson on this footage of the new Fibonacci Fibonacci model, carved spruce top, carved mahogany back and sides, fitted with a floating Krivo pickup. Giorgio Serci Alma Here is a lovely guitar we have been working on with Giorgio Serci called the Alma. It is based on a Californian, but is slightly deeper at 80mm, with our crescent moon headstock shape, and contemporary F holes. The Alma is carved top, 19 frets, and fitted with a OX4 set-in humbucker. Enjoy some wonderful playing by Giorgio here. Chet Chops Chet Atkins chops by Tony Fucile on a carved Chiquita in antique honey nitro....great performances, and lots of fun recording them. Just what the doctor ordered during the lockdown blues! Standards Every Friday, Martin Taylor is putting out his ‘Self Isolation Studio Sessions’. He is up to No 5 now, but you can easily catch up on Martin’s Patreon site or on our FB page.

MARTIN TAYLOR JOYA ORDER BOOK IS OPEN AGAIN! Given we only produce the Martin Taylor JOYA in limited numbers each year, we are pleased to let you know that we have opened the order book again, before the price increase comes into effect on May 1st 2020. The Martin Taylor JOYA is a contemporary styled, hand carved archtop, produced from seasoned spruce and flame maple. While compact in size at a modest 15” lower bout, the JOYA’s substantial arched back and top gives it a BIG, dynamic sound. We use ebony, African black wood and birds eye maple, for the JOYA's tailpiece, bridge, finger-rest and pickup cover, all hand profiled to fit each guitar perfectly. We use only quality components, such as Gotoh SGS510Z tuners, Kent Armstrong floating humbucker, CTS pots, Switchcraft output jack, all wired together in robust steel braided and vintage cloth cabling, to provide increased performance and reliability. Finished in antique honey, nitrocellulose lacquer, the attention to detail on the JOYA oozes quality and class. The JOYA comes standard in a HISCOX hard case.
