Holy Grail Guitar Show in Berlin marks an annual highlight for hand built guitars & basses from luthiers from all over the world. And this year was no exception.
It has been on our scope for years to get an interview with Fred on camera – and this year we finally managed to sit down with him and talk guitars and guitar building.
We met up with Irish luthier, Chris Larkin, on Holy Grail Guitar Show for a little chat.
On this clip Chris talks about his opinion about using local woods versus tropical woods in guitar building and the responsibility of saving the planet.
Once again we went to NAMM Show in Anaheim, CA in January.
One of the cool things about NAMM Show, besides meeting lots of our partners and friends, is the chance you get to discover lots of new great gear. Hahn Guitars was one of the highlights. Especially the 910 model that the builder, Chihoe, makes became one of our favourite hand built guitars on the show this year.
Hahn Guitars can be ordered directly on Vintage & Rare here
Here is a demo of the 910 model.
