Perry Guitars Learn More +
Each instrument is the product of a deep commitment to make the most complete musical instrument possible, one with the potential for the fullest range of musical expression.Perry guitars have a full, open sound with deep, well defined basses, clear singing trebles, and are exceptionally well balanced. They have a broad dynamic range and an extensive colour palette, and are capable of excellent projection. They are heard in many of the concert halls of the world in both solo and chamber music performances.Perry guitars are made using well-aged spruce, rosewoods, maple, cedar, mahogany, and ebony. We work using traditional methods to produce a limited number of instruments each year. Our uncompromising standard of craftsmanship pertains to all areas of the guitar: structural integrity, playability, and all aesthetic details, but most importantly to quality of sound.
“I’ve been making classical guitars since 1982. Early in my career I was introduced to the central ideas of the Torres school. I have been working with these ideas ever since, refining my understanding of them and developing the craftsmanship that brings them to life.” “The ideas of Torres have formed the foundation for the evolution of the guitar from the 19th century, through the 20th and into the 21st century, as the demands upon the guitar have changed. My development as a guitar maker has been more one of discovery rather than reinvention of the guitar. I make historical reproductions as a way of discovering and inheriting the tradition. My concert guitars are my contribution to its evolution.”
“It is my conviction that there is no substitute for the intimate knowledge of the materials that comes from working by hand with hand tools. This understanding is invaluable in unlocking the musical potential of these materials.”
– Daryl Perry
I'm astounded by how vigorous the voice is the voice of these instruments. When the next one comes in the shop, I might need to grab it for myself.
