Tyler Robbins R1. CA Euro/Malaysian BW : Fine Luthiers
Hi, Folks
Fine Luthiers represents Robbins Guitars of Tyler Robbins as the dealer in Asia. We’re so proud to do the premiere of his work over here. This R1 model was ordered for a showcase of Tyler’s work at guitar shows held in China and Japan. It was pre-sold shortly after we announced the build. Thankfully, the client allowed us to attend the shows with this guitar~ I love my work in this giving care community! We’ll come back with the build thread once Tyler progresses. The Spec will be on the next post~ Cheers Alan m:[email protected] w:fineluthiers.com P:+82 10 6478 6443 Last edited by AlanHw; 04-17-2019 at 05:11 PM. |

I had the chance to play and hear three of Tyler's guitars last weekend at the Artisan show. Very, very nice in all respects.
And to hear Hiroya Tsukamoto putting Tyler's guitars thru their paces in concert Saturday morning was an unexpected treat. |

Tyler Robbins R1. CA Euro/Malaysian BW : Fine Luthiers
Hi, Folks
We’re so excited to hear from Tyler this build is officially in progress [emoji4] Since this one is a showcase guitar for Folks in Asia, we wanted Tyler to unleash his creativity on this R1 model as a canvas! The specs we decided were very minimal as follows; Spec Body - R1 with Florentine Cutaway+Arm Bevel Top - Premium Euro Spruce B/S - Malaysian Blackwood Rosette - Unknown Backstrip - Unknown End Wedge - Unknown Top Purfling - Unknown B&S Purfling - Unknown Binding - Unknown Neck - Mahogany Heelcap - Unknown Headstock front veneer - Unknown Headstock back veneer - Unknown Truss rod Cover - Unknown Fretboard - Unknown Bridge - Unknown Frets - EVO Gold frets Beginning with the joined Top & Back~ Tyler uses his scientific method to grade tops, and this Euro is the highest quality in his stash. The back looks very dramatic with the figure and the sapwood in the mid! Looking forward to seeing more! Cheers, Alan m:[email protected] w:fineluthiers.com P:+82 10 6478 6443 |

Well, follow the link below to find finished photos.
https://www.robbinsacoustics.com/r1c...ckwood-italian And the video below is a improvisation play of that guitar. The lower left corner of the video shows "No EQ, No Reverb, No Effects". (Probably, they just used a condenser microphone for recording) |
