Acoustic Centre  is proud to be one of the select few dealers chosen to offer the debut model of Powers Electric guitars, the innovative brand created by Andy Powers, head designer and CEO of Tayor Guitars. These beautiful and contemporary new instruments are a true reflection of Southern California’s vibrant culture.

It's no secret that we love Guild guitars - they're as iconic as any of the other major USA manufacturers, with style and power in spades. Josh and Dan dig in to some of their legendary models in their latest video.

Restringing your acoustic guitar is an important maintenance task that ensures optimal sound quality and performance. Over time, guitar strings become worn out and lose their tone, affecting the overall sound quality of the instrument. So how do you restring your acoustic guitar?

As part of our 30th Anniversary celebrations, one of our favourite Australian luthiers David Worthy has crafted something truly exceptional - the 'Acoustic Centre 30th Anniversary' Brazilian Rosewood Series.

The history of Brazilian rosewood is steeped in legend and lore within the world of guitar making. This magnificent timber has a storied past intertwined with the legacy of iconic guitar builders like C.F. Martin and legendary early luthiers, but to truly understand the significance of Brazilian rosewood, one must delve into the annals of colonial expansion, the rise of Martin Guitars, and its enduring impact on the world of music.

Whether you're a seasoned professional or an aspiring artist, the search for that elusive sonic nirvana is a journey that never truly ends.

With the introduction of the Fender Tone Master Pro, Fender have taken their legacy to new heights, and it's poised to redefine what a multi-effects guitar workstation should be.
