http://www.burginguitars.co.nz/I handcraft acoustic guitars, Weissenborn style guitars, Irish bouzoukis and citterns at my workshop in Wellington, New Zealand (Aotearoa).My instruments are owned and played world wide by musicians such as David Lindley, Mark Seymour, Green Ginger, Steve Bevis and Warren Love.For many years a musician and a woodworker, my background is in chairmaking, custom furniture design and guitar repair. I have played the guitar, bouzouki, and piano for most of my life and currently play in several different groups as well as performing solo.Taking raw timber, choosing the right materials, molding them to shape and ultimately an instrument is a constant source of satisfaction. No two instruments are exactly the same and I enjoy helping people express the gift of music.1) A loose version of "Jesus on the Mainline" recorded to demonstrate the tonality of the two fretboards of the double neck weissenborn recently finished here at Burgin Guitars, New Zealand.One fretboard is tuned to D and the other in G for this tune.
