If you've ever seen Tommy Emmanuel perform you will know he is
one of the world's greatest guitarists, and one of the most
inspirational musicians on the planet.
It takes a great guitar to meet the demands of such a great player.
Over the years we have worked closely with Tommy to develop his
signature series.
Tommy looks for a guitar with superb tone, capable of the most
delicate expression as well as the most ferocious attack. The neck
must stay true regardless of the rigours of international travel
and the guitar needs to perform at its peak, from Rome, to
Nashville, to Sydney!
Our Tommy Emmanuel models feature a Mother of Pearl block inlay on the 12th Fret, engraved with "C.G.P." The acronym stands for "Certified Guitar Player," a title bestowed on Tommy by Chet Atkins and held by only 3 other guitarists in the world - John Knowles, Jerry Reed and Steve Warriner.
