"The guitar has been a revelation. In terms of playability, responsiveness and sheer breathtaking tone, it seems to offer new depths and nuances every time it is played. The instrument has opened up many new musical horizons for me personally, and I'm sure will continue to do so for many years. Thank you for creating a guitar with that special indefinable 'something', and I would recommend anybody who is searching for a high-quality instrument to put a 'Merrin' on their try-out list."
Dave Southall, Birmingham UK

 

"Careful selection of materials and painstaking workmanship make these beautiful instruments sound and look superb. I am so pleased with mine that I have ordered another."
Peter Goldberg , Harpenden, Herts

 
" I bought a guitar from David three years ago because I was not only impressed with the sheer quality & craftsmanship of his work but because David is such an easy person to deal with & he has an intrinsic understanding of what the player is looking for in a guitar."
Ewan Kellock, Scotland
 
"I am the proud owner of three of David’s guitars. All are a demonstration of the creative craftmanship and design. Tailor made for me, I have found my instruments to be responsive, playable and just beautiful. I love them."
Sue Cannell, St Albans

 

"I have watched and listened to David Merrin's progress as a guitar maker over the years. Through his patience and craftsmanship, David has cracked the secret of how to make beautiful guitars. The guitar I bought recently has stunning looks and produces an incredible sound. I still can't believe that such a delicate instrument can develop such great sound projection and still retain the subtle quality necessary for a concert platform. Since I bought my Merrin guitar, I haven't been able to bring myself to play my former favourite guitar, so outclassed is it by David's handiwork."
Paul Doherty, Harpenden
 
"I purchased my David Merrin guitar in 2003. My first impression was one of exquisite workmanship. Coupled with this, you have a superb balance across all the strings, good projection and a sweet sounding first string. The guitar itself, gets better and better, as David predicted. A fine instrument."
Robin Coulthard, North Herts, Music school guitar teacher
 
"With the 'Ebony Guitar' David has produced a wonderfully crafted and contemporary looking instrument with a lovely rich depth of tone."
Boe Pyne. Teacher, Bedford
 
"I asked David to make me a small guitar. He made me a guitar with a smaller body than standard and a narrower neck, but he kept the same scale length as a full-size guitar. I picked it up in August 2004 and it is a delight - easy to play and light to hold but with a very full sound. It has inspired me to play more - thank you David."
Liz Revell, Newport Pagnell
