Guitar Nerds
The Line 6 POD Go & Other NAMM News
Guitar Nerds is brought to you in association with Faith Guitars.
Based right here in the UK, Faith Guitars are designed by British guitar luthier Patrick James Eggle, who has been hand-building guitars for decades for some of the biggest names in the business.
Founded in 2002, Faith Guitars have been voted the UK’s Best Acoustic Guitars 5 times in a row by both the public and panels of music industry experts. So, you can be confident in your new Faith Guitar!
Like all quality acoustics, Faith guitars are made of all-solid tonewoods, so you can be sure they’ll start off sounding great and improve year on year. Faith don’t use Laminated woods. But you’ll be pleased to know that despite the all-solid tonewoods, the superb specification and hand-made construction, Faith Guitars are still affordable with prices starting around £450 or $600USD.
Discover the range here and then visit one of the many UK or European retailers to try them for yourselves.
If you’re in the USA or Canada, you can buy direct HERE – and by using the COUPON CODE: NERDS at checkout you can get an exclusive 10% discount.
This week on The Guitar Nerds Podcast, hosts Joe and Mark will take you on a wild ride, smashing head on through the last week of NAMM releases at a lightning fast pace.
From the unexpected Line 6 POD Go to the retro Harmony Juno, right up to the Meris/Chase Bliss collaboration and Dan Lakin/Ashdown basses - this episode is a white knuckle ride in gear that you will have to buy!
