Its gorgeous! Plays like a dream and sounds amazing! Took me 7 years from going on the waiting list to having the money to buy, but worth the wait (and worth every penny!). 

Jonny Kinkead is a truly gifted man - and a wonderful person as well! 

If anyone is thinking of having a handmade guitar, take a trip to Bristol! After the lockdown, obviously!

    Lucky you and happy NGD.
    Jonny did some work for me on a Gordon Smith over 30 years ago when I was fortunate enough to pick him out of whatever options there were for setup and modding work etc in Bristol back in those pre internet days and I'd agree that he is extremely talented and a great bloke to chat to.

    Don’t see many of these around, certainly not in the used market place, excellent choice.

    I did have a used one that I sold to pay for this one, but they are very rare!

    Always a sign of quality, nobody ever wants to get rid of a good guitar.

    Nice.

    I've got his book about how to make your own, I've used it as extra help to make my two kit guitars. It's an excellent book.

    Good purchase, very jealous.

    Lovely, congrats. Is it a satin finish?

    It’s an oil finish which Jonny has buffed to an almost gloss sheen!

    Wow! My brother used to live on the same street as the workshop, so I just popped in one day. What a nice bloke, and his guitars are so good. He had a small body one in there, I saw it being played in the TPS video, best acoustic I ever played. Congratulations!

    He’s still in the same workshop - it’s like an Aladdin’s cave for guitarists! 

    This is definitely the best guitar i’ve ever played - acoustic or electric!

    Ive never played one but how stuff is legendary, and I thought he came across as a lovely guy and a real craftsman on TPS.
