This review is a little unusual as the guitar in question was a UK Custom Built project for a very lucky young man called Michael Eastham who worked alongside me in my workshop during his Half-Term School holidays throughout the build. This was a great experience for Michael and has produced a top quality guitar which I’m sure he will treasure for a lifetime. Although still a young man Michael has attended lessons for a number of years at the Cassidy Guitar Studio and is now an accomplished Guitarist and Bass player. He also has a fine collection of guitars – so he knows what he is talking about…….

Review by Michael Eastham

This guitar is by FAR the best guitar i have seen, played and owned.      As if the fact that it was custom built wasn’t enough, I can gladly say I had the brilliant opportunity to help build this excellent instrument.

It sounds perfect, it looks perfect and it was great to help build, and everything extra; the stands, and string changes, the extra work put into the build, have been greatly appreciated.

This guitar could not be any better, and i would rate this guitar a definite 10/10, thanks again Simon Cassidy!
