Edward B. Jones Classical Guitar 1980 - French Polish
For sale: A rare classical guitar built by Edward B. Jones, a British luthier who trained under and worked with David J. Rubio.
Rubio mentored and trained three young builders in the 1970s – Kazuo Sato, Edward B. Jones, and Paul Fischer – teaching them his construction methods. These luthiers built instruments following Rubio’s designs, marking their authorship inside the guitar, either with stamped initials on the heel or a handwritten signature on the label.
This particular guitar was built in 1980, shortly after Edward Jones established his own workshop in Steeple Aston, Oxfordshire.
The guitar has a generous tone, with a strong fundamental and crisp trebles. It is consistent across all registers and responds well to different playing styles. It's a real joy to play
