Description

We have heard of Thomas Rein for some time now, we have even had a guitar or two of his in the shop and we loved them, but this guitar is a beast of a different kind. Thomas was showing this instrument at the 2015 Memphis guitar show, and of all the spectacular guitars that we saw and played there, this RJN-3C was our absolute favorite. The tone of this instrument is incredible, it is open like a century old guitar, but with the crispness and sparkle associated with modern guitar. It is mind blowing. Thomas chose great woods for this one, the Lutz Spruce top and Cocobolo back and sides combine exceptionally well, contributing to that special sound Thomas has achieved.

Like it says above, this was my top pick at the Memphis Guitar Show. A guitar has to be painfully good to stand out at a show like that, and this one did. The voice is just so open and pure, you will have to come in and play it to believe it.

I was really impressed with this instrument. I had not heard of this builder before and the quality blew me away. The tone is clear and sweet with lots of body and sparkle. The choice of woods is also incredible. Just a great guitar all around.
