I started Giffin Guitars in England, where it existed in various forms from the late 60's up until the mid 80's. During those years I was fortunate enough to hook up with a lot of very good musicians. This gave me the opportunity and encouragement to design and build guitars that became widely accepted in England at that time.
The workshop was located under a bridge by the river Thames in London, and it soon became a meeting place for many 'name' player of that time. It became the hotspot for people seeking great guitars and guitar service.
Regular customers included Eric Clapton, Pete Townshend and John Entwhistle (The Who), Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits), Andy Summers (The Police) David Gilmour (Pink Floyd), and many more. Hundreds of quality, reasonably priced guitars were made at "Giffin Guitars
