Beyond The Trees Exhibition and Concert was a lively weekend with talks on the building of acoustic guitars, the lineage of time and makers throughout the guitar building industry, explaining the original makers styles and themes and culminating it all into a display of recently built 100% Australian Tonewood acoustic guitars.
Thomas Lloyd Guitars School Of Acoustic Guitar Building are celebrating their 10th year of teaching students the fine art of custom building. Many of the student that displayed their guitars over the weekend are building from their home workshops and starting their own custom built business.
Chris Wynne says "We live in Australia - why would we not use the resources that we have available to us. The tonewoods are comparable to all other European tonewood and in most cases created quite a unique sound"
The weekend closed with a dazzling array of classical and acoustic players presenting for the first time these Australian Tonewood Guitars.
