A reshare from our wonderful retail partners @corzicmusic "So many amazing things coming down the pipe here at Corzic. One we have been so excited to share is the addition of @auden_guitars to our lineup. As their first dealer in the US, we are proud to be the first to offer these to our community. -Learn more about Auden- Auden is a built in UK brand focused on incredible value. With Clark supernatural pickups, hand voicing, and high-grade woods, we are sure that you’ll be blown away when you see how affordable these truly are. Sound profiles trend toward clarity, resonance, and size. Dreadnoughts are rich and loud but not too boomy. Parlors are clear, harmonically intricate, and punchy. Whether you are a worship leader, a gigging professional, or a student putting in the hours 😤, these are the perfect instruments for you." #auden #audenguitars #britishguitars #handbuiltguitars #acousticguitardaily #acousticguitarbuilding #guitarsdaily #guitartalk #acousticguitarplayer #acousticguitars #guitars #acousticguitar #guitarlife #guitarist #guitarsofinstagram

Sometimes good things take a while to evolve and become something special. Each instrument should be an extension of the player and this project for even more personal with this custom carved inlay. It is a sign he used for his work as a sculptor. This was now carved into the fingerboard and filled with copper dust. Very special! #custombuiltguitar #bespokeguitar #handbuiltguitars #carvedinwood #copperdust

Reposted from our friends @regentsounds One pickup is all you need really… here at Regent Sounds we’re incredibly proud to stock @gordonsmithguitars - always going above and beyond to create beautiful guitars for the working musician! This GS1 in Vintage Gold is a perfect example of Gordon Smith nailing the simplicity of a single pickup guitar. Plus the Marshall Origin 5 Amp, which is a whole lotta amp without breaking the bank. Make a trip to Regent Sounds in London or one of our other retail partners to see what’s in stock and take home a new toy today! #gordonsmithguitars #gsguitars #britishguitars #handbuiltguitars #customguitars #customguitarsdaily #guitarsdaily #guitarbuilder #guitartalk #electricguitars #guitars #guitarlife #guitarlove #guitarist #guitarplayer

We had the privilege of @wearepetneeds stopping by the workshop recently. This is what it's all about - getting guitars into the hands of artists. Where will you play your Auden next? Send us a pic of you playing for a chance to be featured.
Came out pretty good. First time I installed one after the binding. Not sure I like doing it in this order better. I guess time will tell. #guitar #guitarinlay #inlayart #inlay #acousticguitar #customguitars #bespoke #handbuiltguitars #handmadeguitar #wood #woodworking #lootbing #luthier #lutherie
How good is this Mahogany Honey Burst Graduate 60? This classic beauty boasts a flame maple cap, trapeze inlays, custom wound alnico 5 pickups (14k bridge, 9k neck), no coil split on bridge. And finished off with Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky 9-46. #gordonsmithguitars #gsguitars #britishguitars #handbuiltguitars #customguitars #customguitarsdaily #guitarsdaily #guitarbuilder #guitartalk #electricguitars #guitars #guitarlife #guitarlove #guitarist #guitarplayer

Well, I made it and so happy to be here. The trip up I-5 was brutal, it took about six hours from Portland to Seattle, then another hour and a half to La Conner, major traffic snaggles. But, now my booth is set up and I’m ready to relax and connect with all of the guitar enthusiasts and fellow luthiers here.
