By now we have landed back on Dutch soil, but we look back on a delightful edition of the world's biggest guitar fair: NAMM 2025. Check out our highlights here!
Boutique Guitar Showcase
A regular stop where we can be found is with the builders who are part of the Boutique Guitar Showcase. This show is curated by our good friend Jamie and features the most innovative, eccentric and extraordinary guitars. So we got our hands on a Blue Label guitar by Hozen Guitars, we finally met Michael Greenfield, we tried the ‘Tie-Die’ guitar by R. Robinson Guitars and the colours of the Bacci baritone guitars reminded us of our own shop.
Does your heart beat faster with these brands? Send us an email or call our Fellows and we will make sure you get your dream guitar in your hands!

Eastman
Of course, a visit to our friends at Eastman could not be missed! Last year saw the release of their D'Ambrosio Series , a collaboration with master luthier Otto D'Ambrosio. A brand new model in 3 different variants and packed with innovative improvements like the FullerTone neck.
We are big fans so it was super to be able to speak to the designer and builder of these guitars. We dare say we will see these guitars more often in Dedemsvaart!

Martin
There was also plenty of beauty to be found at the Martin & Costand. Besides the eye-catching Grand J28E DN and their breathtaking work of art, the D300, they also gave their entire Standard Series a ‘Refresh’. With subtle improvements, such as the ‘Golden Era’ bracing and neck profile, the models from Nazareth, Pennsylvania remain the beloved classics that set the standard for the rest.
Lowden
At Lowden, we couldn't take our eyes off the ‘McCool’. In addition, we saw not only their latest acoustic guitars, for example the F10 and F12, but also the new electric models such as the GL10 and GL10c.
Mayones
As brand new Mayones dealer, we were only too happy to walk past their spectacular guitars! Which Mayones would you choose?
Iconic Guitars
We were pleasantly surprised by the fat S-Style guitars at the stand of Kevin and John Cruz of Iconic Guitars. Should we bring these guitars to Dedemsvaart?
Taylor Guitars
Taylor Guitars also has plenty of new stuff to offer! Not only new guitars, but also the Circa 74 amps. Coming soon to TFOA!
Collings
Electric or acoustic, whatever Collings do, they always do well! We are already looking forward to all the models we are going to receive this year. Contact us for more information.

Novo & Fano Guitars
Novo and Fano have recently been reunited with Dennis Fano at the helm. We are proud to be one of the few European shops to offer guitars from these brands. Keep an eye on our New Arrivals page to be the first to get your hands on these great guitars from Nashville. Or order one of Novo's exclusive Dealer Limited models from us.
Santa Cruz
What a small world! At Santa Cruz, we ran into ‘friend of the shop’ Paul Davids! We also always find it a great honour to catch up with Richard Hoover and ordered a long list of beautiful Santa Cruz guitars . We can't wait!
And much more!
Now we forget Iris Guitars, Furch, Kevin Ryan, but also amp brands like Supro, Magnatone and the new Era amps from Bad Cat. We also visited these brands, and more, and made lots of plans for the year ahead. It promises to be another wonderful year with lots of great stuff for guitar lovers, so keep an eye on our website, as well as our Instagram, Facebook and TikTok .
