Hand Made Acoustic Guitars Built To Your Custom & Personal Bespoke Requirement
The Hand Made Acoustic Guitars That Changed My Perception of Acoustic Guitars Forever
For the past 5 years I have been captivated by one particular brand.
What is extraordinary is up until 5 years ago - I had never even heard of them.
What is even harder to believe is I have been in the industry 29 years and THOUGHT I was being mindful of all the possibilities the World of acoustic guitar manufacturing had to offer.
How on Earth could I not know such a brand exists? Why have I not heard about them in the mainstream press or seen much about them online?
I take great pride in my hghly personalised selection of acoustic guitars but what Dowina offer is truly unique. In fact, what Dowina offer is SO remarkable - it doesnt sound possible that it could be true - but t is!
Hand Made Acoustic Guitar? Yes!
We are talking the most tradiional of approaches and its so beautiful to watch in person.
Custom Shop / Bespoke Acoustic Guitar? Yes!
Whilst some brands claim to be hand made - often they are highly automated (which isnt necessarily a bad thing - unless of course you want to emerse yourself in the joy of an instrument truly produced by the skills of craftsmen - not CNC tooling) - but even what I would consider to be the most "hand made" production guitars - will not offer you true bespoke designs and complete control over the woods from the bottom up. More often you will be given no choice of the exact selection of wood (you will choose the wood but not the piece they use) and you will often find you are limited to a range of pre set custom options - which is not the same as being a fully bespoke instrument.
Dowina are the ultimate acoustic guitar players dream. I would highly recommend you ask to pay them a visit as its the most inspiring environment.
However - It doesnt stop there. Dowina litrerally travel the World hand selecting EVERY SINGLE piece of wood. Not only checked cosmetically but tonally. Every piece tap tuned for resonance and held in the hand to gauge flexibility and density. It is mind blowing what level they go to in order to produce you a genuine hand made custom shop and fully bespoke acoustic guitar.
If you are interested in learning about why I believe Dowina Acoustic Guitars are the finest hand made acoustic guitars money can buy - please watch this video I produced that documented the very personal journey I had visiting their workshop and the personal feelings of Peter who works on the Dowina Guitars team.
