Established in 2001 AcousticMusic.Org evolved from a hobby that went entirely out-of-control. Guitars are beautiful objects. They began as a simple devices to musically accompany the human voice. They are light and portable and evolved in response to the form of the human body and the needs of ever-changing popular music. They are shaped by human hands to an amazingly high level of craft and precision; and improve with age both sonically and aesthetically. They are the only Art object that stands on their own sculptural merit, and work as tools used to create music: a performance Art. They are wonders to behold, feel and hear. The obsession for beautiful instruments became a collection. With a collection comes endless research. The research led us to people of similar interests and many new relationships built on curiosity and learning. We came to realize that we are in the midst of a renaissance of guitar building: some of the most beautiful and best made instruments are being created today. By 2001 we wanted to share this enthusiasm and the shop emerged. In 2013 the shop needed more space and expanded into 1250 Boston Post Road, Guilford. The new space is more visible and offers enough room for small in-shop events like workshops and mini-concerts. These can include major performers, Luthiers and notable members of the Music Industry. The new shop is walking distance from the old space allowing the two to work together for a broader experience. AcousticMusic.Org specializes in stringed instruments: Steel string guitars, nylon-string guitars, mandolins, banjos, ukuleles, tipples, bass guitars, and all sorts of new, used and vintage guitars and stringed instruments. Many of the instruments are one-of-a-kind, hand-made and custom Luthier-built. Also represented are short-run and custom guitars by Gibson, Martin, Bourgeois, Santa Cruz, Huss & Dalton, Collings, PRS, Gretsch, National, Hofner, and others. It is a very unique collection. There is no place else that we know of that has all of these top-level builders represented in one location. The shop feels a bit like an Art Gallery, but the viewer is encouraged to touch and experience the Art.
