The Fairclough Story
Steve Fairclough has been a professional guitar player for over 40 years.
During that time he has had a vast experience of teaching and tuition at all levels. In the early 90s he founded the Guitar Academy in the North of England. He toured the world through his work as international demonstrator for both Takamine and Parker guitars, and he went on to be a patron and course leader at the world renowned Bath International Guitar Festival. He has written columns for many UK guitar magazines. And was responsible for writing the examination pieces for the Young Acoustic Guitarist of the Year competitions. He was also the European Ambassador for Fishman Transducers.
For years, Steve had never really been entirely comfortable recommending a beginners or intermediate guitar, as most available makes and models were built solely on price, using the cheapest components to offer the cheapest guitar on the wall. These Fairclough guitars have been built with specification first and foremost.
The woods used are good quality, well dried and well sawn, the Pickups are usually either Wilkinson or Fishman, and each guitar is quality inspected before it leaves the factory, and then undergoes a full 22 point set-up before it leaves our warehouses to you.
Every Guitar Includes Professional Setup
It doesn’t matter what the value of the guitar, if you buy it from us we take extra steps to ensure you are completely satisfied with your instrument. Each guitar goes through a 22 step professional guitar set up process to make sure your new instrument sounds as the manufacturer intended it to play.
This means that your guitar may take an extra day to deliver, just so we can get these checks done. You’ll receive email updates once your guitar is ready for despatch.
We hope you feel it’s worth the extra time and patience we spend on your instrument.
