Ive been playing my Father In Laws Acoustic for years, and every time i had the opportunity to do so it made me want a Brook.... so Last year I ordered one. this is My Brook Taw finished with Macassar Ebony back and sides, spruce top, ebony fretboard and facia...

i don't have it yet as its settling in and is awaiting a final setup once the wood is settled. but.... I can't wait.

    Woof! If you get it in time, any chance we could persuade you to come along to the Huddersfield birthday bash with that?

    One day I want to have a Brook acoustic, it’s almost a guitar life goal.

    Enjoy, it looks awesome.

    Beautiful - the chaps at Brook give nothing but stellar service. I have a yew/walnut Tavy and love it to bits.

    I visited them last year. They were an absolute delight, and it's a fascinating day out. I love their workshop, it is just heaven.

    Indeed - when I have the spare funds, I think I will be paying them another visit....

  • Congrats, they are great guitars! Going down to custom order a Torridge 15 years ago is still one of my fondest guitar buying experiences!

  • Worst part of owning that would be to leave it with front or back showing.  #1stWorldProblems :)

    It arrived today, my father in law dropped it off tonight....... it’s an amazing instrument,  I’m in heaven. More to follow once I’ve gotten over the initial shock.

    That looks wonderful! We don't get many Brook guitars in the US. What are their best features?

    the sound is just balanced, sweet to the ears and addictive. the fit and finish are flawless. Brook guitars are made in devon in small quantities and to order. its like buying a custom fitted suit from the best quality materials, it looks great and feels better.

    The back of that looks amazing.

    I really feel like there's a noticeable difference in quality when you step up to a properly nice acoustic.  Enjoy!
