Selecting the Best from the Craftsmen of Europe

The introduction of the Dupont range of guitars, basses, amplifiers and pickups has been particularly well received this year with excellent reviews of the Auditorium flat tops and the B4E acoustic bass appearing in Guitarist and Bass Guitar magazine respectively.

The Be-Bop Jazz Archtop (pictured right) has recently been reviewed in Guitar and Bass Magazine and will be on display at the Northern Guitar Shows this year along with a sample of the Dupont Range .

The unique, collapsible, Volante bass again from the Dupont studios has also created quite a stir.  This fantastic double bass, built with the touring musician in mind: soon to be seen taking the stage with The Jools Holland Orchestra. The bass combines excellent playability and a great sound with the peace of mind provided by the instrument’s golf bag sized flight case. The 5-string and left handed versions have proven particularly popular.

The French made Volante bass now sits in the Old Dairy showroom alongside its more traditional double bass cousins and the rest of the Kremona bowed instrument range in the Sandarac portfolio.  Handcrafted in the Orpheus Valley these traditionally made violins, violas, cellos and basses continue to represent excellent value for money.
