Roger Williams - Luthier

Artists and Events

Gordon Giltrap pictured on my stand at the Sept. 2007 Cheltenham Acoustic Guitar Show

Gordon gave an hour-long concert at the show using my guitar

Gordon tangles with the incredible "Mermaid" by Andy Manson.

In April 2007 I visited Spain and met with many guitar makers both in Granada and Madrid.  Pictured here in there workshop are (L to R) Jose Marin Plazuelo, Antonio Marin Montero and Jose Gonzalez Lopez- three of the finest makers both in Granada and Spain.

Sample music tracks

Track 1 - A Christmas Carol - one of Gordon's all time favourite compositions. (Published by EMI)

Track 2 - Lazy Sunday - a new tune as yet un-published; this is the first recording!

Both tracks were recorded on the Roger Williams Finger-style Acoustic Guitar by Gordon Giltrap in his studio using a single AKG microphone, directly to DAT.  Samples are reproduced here by kind permission of Gordon Giltrap.
