| The distinctive feature of "Tommy´s special guitars" is the systematic respect for wood |
|
| and physical sound properties; each instrument is the technical synthesis of these characteristics. There is much more to making a guitar |
|
|
| sound good than sophisticated pickups and electronics.
The same care required when choosing the wood and the body shape must also be applied when creating the whole neck of the guitar, including the fret board. Putting together |
|
| all these parts and matching them exactly is precision work and calls for a corresponding degree of sensitivity that reflects the symbiotic nature of the production process. The guitars I produce are the result of many years of |
|
|
| close communication between musicians from all over the world and myself. Another element of my concept is to incorporate the individual wishes of guitarists as regards design and materials. Thomas Metz |
