Luthier Robin Moyes 2023 – Australia

Robin Moyes and Simon Marty invented the radial bracing together, which is why the guitars from both luthiers share a lot of similar qualities: they are powerful, well-balanced with a crystal-clear traditional sound, and huge string separations. It has been a longtime since we did not have a Robin Moyes. This 2023 Robin Moyes is amazing both in terms of craftsmanship and sound quality.

A powerful, very well-balanced tone, premier-quality materials and meticulous guitar-making, with a crystal clear notes and huge string separations. Robin Moyes does not make Smallman type classical guitars. His classical guitars use an almost carbon-free radial bracing and are very similar to the guitars made by Simon Marty.

When we think about Australian guitar makers, three names come to mind: Greg Smallman, Jim Redgate and Simon Marty. With Robin Moyes we are delighted to be able to offer classical guitars that contain all the features of Simon Marty’s guitars. Simon Marty and Robin Moyes invented the radial barring concept together and totally adapted the classical guitar’s characteristics to offer us some outstanding guitars.

Robin’s guitars are different from classical guitars with lattice bracing, but offer the same power and surprising projection. The harmonics are rich and have incredible resonance. The high notes are sustained for a surprisingly long time, while the bass notes are very well balanced. The result is a very elegant, tuneful tone. The spruce adds brilliance. The adjustments are perfect and the sound spectacular. A cedar top and stunning South American rosewood guitar from Robin. His classical guitars use an almost carbon-free radial barring and are very similar to the guitars made by Simon Marty, with whom he has perfected this technique. A powerful, very well-balanced tone, premier-quality materials and meticulous guitar-making, with a crystal clear notes and huge string separations.

The guitar is delivered with a Hiscox case.
