Default Kennedy Guitars.

Does anyone here have any experience with Kennedy acoustics? They look like high quality custom instruments at a terrific price.

Try The Podium they have been the most involved with the builder. They are a great value.

I am new to the forum, but I own #10 of T. Kennedy's fine guitars.

I'm a believer. I've played a handful of them and have been impressed in all instances. So much so that I bought one. I should be receiving a used size 2 lutz/rosewood tomorrow.

Terry Kennedy has been to a few of our Twin Cities AGF get-togethers. He's also had guitars at the Podium. I've played a few of his OMs, but it's been a couple years ago. He builds really nice sounding guitars that also play well. I remember playing his personal mahogany OM and thinking it was one of the better OMs I've played. His guitars are traditional sounding.

I know Terry from another forum and have talked with him personally and sampled his guitars at a couple of the yearly gatherings that forum holds. His guitars seem to me to be excellent and are bargains because he is relatively unknown.

Terry is also an extremely nice guy. He is a retired orthopedic surgeon and he applies the same care to guitar building as he did to knee replacements.
