About UKguitars.com

UKguitars.com will be an independent publication celebrating the work of the UK's guitar builders, tone shapers and parts makers.

Launching in June 2024 by Ian Rhodes this site has been a long time coming. A culmination of my life as a guitarist, guitar shop owner and believer in the work of guitar people right here in the UK. Sure, we all love the heritage of the Gibsons and Fenders, but this is an exploration of what else is out there. The guitars, pedals, amps and more being built right now in the UK by tone adventurists and master craftspeople alike.

So, the aim of the site is simple. To showcase their work. Interviews, features, tours... all conversations so that we can learn a little more about the people that are making incredible instruments and accessories both for a living as well as for pleasure. Love to have you join me on this journey. Subscribe today to be part of something a little different.
