Rob is one of the UK's foremost independent guitar makers. I have one of his, a set-neck deluxe - literally one of his because he made it for himself originally. Coincidentally, I bought this, my first guitar from an independent builder, on the fourth of July, in 2013.

It's a fabulous guitar in every way, build, tone and playability. Yes, very expensive but, for once, the expense is fully justified.
