Adrian Farmer / Farmer GCL-M European Spruce Rosewood B Stock / Guitar

Adrian Farmer has been making guitars and other string instruments since 1983, even for artists like John Paul Jones and Mark Knopfler. We are very proud to say that Adrian can now be found in our workshop doing repairs and guitar maintenance. In 2017, Adrian had around 600 hand-built instruments on his name, and to celebrate, he challenged himself to build a guitar with a classic design, but with a modern approach. This resulted in this 12 fret guitar, with an Indian rosewood back and sides and European spruce top, based on the shape of a classical nylon-string guitar but built for steel strings. Looking for the best sound, Adrian moved the 'X' bracing pattern slightly and adjusted all surrounding braces accordingly in shape, size and profile. The result is a better balance between bass and treble. As a luthier and musician, Adrian knows exactly which standards a guitar has to meet for an inspiring sound and an addictive playability, and you can see, hear, and feel that with this guitar! Adrian has taken this guitar to a few guitar shows and had it reviewed by several guitar magazines, so it has some light playwear and small dings on the back and top of the body. As a prototype, and thus the first of its kind, this guitar has always remained in Adrian's private collection. Now Adrian will give it one more set-up before it gets a new owner. Consignment.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
