The DC Guitars Pavilion / Sovereign range is a new range of electric guitars and basses designed with a stylistic nod to the body shape of the popular parlor acoustic guitar but with the body depth and tonal flexibility of an electric guitar / bass.

Each instrument is custom built so there are options around the wood choices, hardware, pickups and finish. Subtle changes can also be made to the body (such as belly carves, arm rests and f-holes) and the neck (thickness and profile) to enhance playability specifically for the player (the beauty of a custom-built instrument).

Please note both right and left handed models are available.

About the craftsman

I trained at The Galloup School of Guitar Building and Repair based in Big Rapids, Michigan, US. and have completed both the Acoustic and Electric ‘Journeyman Programs’

In addition, I have completed training at The Totnes School of Guitar Making (Totnes, UK), where the Pavilion range of guitars and Sovereign bass were designed and developed, as well as Guitar Tech Courses (Cross In Hand, UK) and Crimson Guitars (Dorchester, UK).

I am based at my studio in the Beeching Road Creative Space in Bexhill, a curated studio community home to over 27 independent artists, makers and creative businesses at all stages of their careers.
