“Modern technical music requires the right tools for the job, and Aristides guitars check all the boxes and surpass all of my expectations. I always heard amazing things about them being at the forefront of innovation and when I first got the chance to test one out in 2017, I instantly knew these were the guitars for me. I find their instruments effortless to play and they inspire new ideas and facilitate complete creativity on the instrument for me.”
