Gray Guitars is a small, custom guitar shop based in Richmond-upon-Thames, UK that specialises in Fender-inspired instruments. We use the finest materials to create bespoke guitars that are both innovative and familiar. We are on the official list of trade users for Bare Knuckle Pickups; we love the sound of these amazing units and have used them to great success on a wide variety of guitars.

I love to offer switching options; many of our guitars offer push-pull options that provide interesting and eminently usable sounds – widening the sonic palette of the classic guitar models of the 50s without adding mini-switches or extra knobs.

We use roasted maple for our necks. Roasted maple necks are strong, stable and beautiful; and when finished with oil and wax, provide a lightning fast playing surface.

We finish our guitars with nitrocellulose lacquer, just the like the classic makers of the golden era of electric guitars. We find that using this finish gives a live, resonant instrument that will of course check and age beautifully.

With exacting attention to detail, our instruments are a joy to play. With the help of the ‘Plek’ machine in-house at Charlie Chandlers’ workshop, our fret jobs are second to none – perfect to accompany any playing style.

With the likes of Lol Crème (10cc, Godley and Crème, Art of Noise) and Tim Renwick (Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton, David Bowie) already touring and recording with our guitars we are now launching into the guitar community.
