FRET KING TO UNVEIL GREGG
WRIGHT SIGNATURE GUITAR AT 2013 NAMM SHOW!
|
The UK's Fret King Guitars
http://www.fret-king.com/ will unveil the
new Gregg Wright Signature guitar at the 2013 NAMM show in Anaheim, CA., the
weekend of January 25-27. Legendary guitar luthier Trev Wilkinson designed the
guitar according to Gregg's specs. "When it comes to innovative guitar design,
Trev Wilkinson is about the most brilliant guy I've ever met! It is a thrill and
an honor to work with him on this project. I cannot wait to start making some
noise with what I'm sure will be a sonic weapon!" says Gregg. "Trev, Dennis
Drumm and I have talked at length about the specs for this guitar. I've been
extremely unhappy and dissatisfied with the quality of the guitars the
so-callled "big name" brands have been putting out over the last several years.
There's been too much poor craftsmanship coupled with cheap materials.
This is why guitar companies like Charvel
took off big in the '80's and the big names damned near disappeared. The same
thing appears to be happening all over again. History is repeating itself.
Instrument and gear manufacturers in general don't seem to understand that
splashy ads with pretty girls in bikinis do not sell
instruments! Somebody playing the Hell out of one
does! I've visited Trev Wilkinson's shop in Southport near
Liverpool and I can personally attest to the superior sound, feel and solid
craftsmanship of his guitars. Trev's innovative ideas, attention to detail and
the quality of materials he uses are sure to make Fret King the go to
guitar making company for the forseeable future. Once a guitarist or bassist
plays one, they won't want to go anywhere else!" The Gregg Wright Signature
model will be commercially available at Fret King dealers, worldwide. To find a
