Acoustic guitars are timeless instruments known for their warm, natural sound and versatility across genres like folk, blues, rock, and classical. Played unplugged or with a pickup for amplification, they come in various body shapes such as dreadnought, concert, and parlour, each offering unique tone and comfort. This category includes everything you need for your acoustic journey—from full-sized steel-string and classical guitars to travel-sized models, pickups, preamps, cases, and essential accessories. Whether you’re strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies, our range covers it all for beginners and seasoned players alike.
Sunburst is a classic guitar finish featuring a gradient blend of colours that typically fade from a darker edge to a lighter centre, resembling the glow of a setting sun. This timeless style is popular on both electric and acoustic guitars and adds visual depth and character to the instrument. Sunburst finishes come in various variations—such as vintage, cherry, or tobacco sunburst—and have been favoured by many iconic guitar models throughout history.
A vintage guitar is a guitar that is considered to be of significant age, typically over 30 years old, and often possesses historical, cultural, or collector’s value. Vintage guitars are highly sought after by collectors, musicians, and enthusiasts for their craftsmanship, tone, playability, and historical significance.
Vintage guitars can come from various eras, each with its own unique characteristics and desirability.
Vintage guitars often exhibit signs of wear and aging, which can add to their character and authenticity. However, originality, condition, and provenance are crucial factors that determine the value of a vintage guitar. Well-maintained and all-original vintage guitars with documented history and provenance tend to command higher prices on the collector’s market.
While vintage guitars can be valuable investments, they are also cherished for their playability and the unique sonic characteristics they offer. Many musicians prefer vintage instruments for their mojo, vibe, and connection to music history.
