    For decades Guitar Village has been assisting guitar players throughout the UK and over the world (from the novice to celebrity players) find their dream guitar.
    A fantastic range of low interest finance options now help the guitarist find the correct guitar for them without the price tag being an issue by spreading the instalments into easily manageable interest free payments. There’s nothing we love more than allowing a player of the past to re-live their passion by starting up again, but this time with the guitar they always wanted but could never afford.
    Guitar Village is based in Surrey, UK and serves customers within its beautiful old building on West Street Farnham and via our online guitar shop.
    Farnham is on the borders of Surrey and Hampshire, and only 45 minutes from London. The trip is worth it, but if you prefer to shop online, everything is online too!

    I just love that Martin can’t resist playing or singing throughout the whole interview. You can see his fingers itching to pick a string constantly. Lovely man, brilliant musician and excellent interview.

    One time I visited London I had two concerts that interested me, so I had to choose. It was U2 or Martin. Loved hearing Martin that fine evening.

    Having, at 54, started to learn guitar and after 2 years still struggling, this is awesome (in the true sense of the word).
    My mind is blown!

    This is priceless. Martin is at the top of the acoustic tree. Plays with so much style and taste. This is like having him in your living room. Glad to see him playing the Taran also. I've had more guitars than I can count (including one of Martin's Sobells) but I ended up with a Tirga Mhor like this.

      Martin's amazing in the way he sings over the top of complex fingerstyle, playing quite independently. I bought a second-hand Taran similar to Martin's, without the cutaway. Its fabulous. I've never come upon a guitar that plays and sounds like nothing I've come across previously.

    Martin turned me on to this (his?) CGCFCD tuning. So much more melodic and pleasant than standard or, even, DADGAD. My favorite and most versatile tuning for me now. THANKS Martin!

    if there is a Hall of Fame for Americana music, he's long over due (even though, i know, he's british).
