Leddington Guitars is my small one-man workshop based in the historic city of Bath, United Kingdom. I specialise in custom hand-built guitars, cases, boutique picks, and repair work.
Originally from Worcestershire, I moved to Antwerp, Belgium in 2010, where I quickly found myself co-founding a local bluegrass group or two while studying at the world- renowned CMB (Center for Musical Instrument Building) in Puurs. Through this headlong immersion into acoustic music and woodworking - combined with my background in Fine Arts - my sense of the visual and the aural became inseparably intertwined.
Many instruments later, I returned to my native UK and developed a sonic sensibility focused on producing balanced and responsive guitars, with particular emphasis on how they play and feel. These instruments are built by a player, for players.
Beyond their primary acoustic function, I maintain a strong yet minimal visual aesthetic, often favouring simple straight lines, uncomplicated appointments, and classically balanced forms. This approach allows the wood - often dazzling enough on its own - to speak for itself, both visually and sonically.
My passion is to create hand-built
instruments that honour the American
tradition of luthiery while introducing a
modern look and feel through custom
designs and ideas.Whether you are
looking for a bold, wild-looking
dreadnought or a sweet-sounding
00 with custom inlays designed by
your artist friend, you’ve come to the
right place.
