Vertex Videos

There is a batch of videos that do a great job of demoing the Vertex pedals and we'd like to share them with you. We will be carrying items from the Vertex product line, designed by Mason Marangella. Mason has made pedals and pedal boards for the elite of the elite: Robben Ford, Michael Landau, John Scofield and Eddie Martinez - just to name a few. Here at CR Guitars we only want to carry the highest quality products, and Mason and his Vertex line are a great match - right alongside the other pedal greats, Pete Cornish and John Landgraff. Check back soon - in addition to the killer Landau Mod Chorus Pedal, we will be carrying the Vertex Wah pedal as well as providing pedal board services for custom requests. For now, click the read more link below to view the videos.

Acoustics, Hand Selected for You

We here at CR Guitars have done quite a lot of research on our selection of acoustic guitars. They're a rare cross section of instruments hand selected to appeal to a very special breed of guitar buyers - our customers. You see, we don't just select great acoustic guitars - there are plenty of those. We select exceptional acoustic guitars that have characteristics that will make them particularly noteworthy, not only for an acoustic player but for the electric musician. From specific neck shapes and body styles to incredible playability, we look for the acoustics that will knock an electrics player's socks off. A quick glance at our lineup should be pretty convincing - we carry, now or in the future, acoustics by: Collings, George Lowden, Raymond Kraut, Jason Kostal, Michi Matsuda, Joe Veillette and of course the oh-so-flexible Blackbirds. So take a look. We think you'll be surprised.

Stephen Marchione "Mike Moreno" Model

It has been a long wait to acquire a set of Marchione semi-hollow guitars and when they arrived it was an exciting day! We knew they'd be amazing -  these ARE Marchione guitars. But of course, in person they were stunning and gorgeous, even majestic. They are all custom variations of Marchione's "Mike Moreno" model, each one special in its own right.

Johan Gustavsson Semi-Hollow Masterpieces

The Johan Gustavsson Semi-Hollows, otherwise referred to as the Bluesmaster-S and Dotmaster have been stopping briefly here at CR Guitars on their way to cherishing owners. A gang of them recently came through and sold before we could even post them on our website (a good reason to give us a call if you're interested in one of these amazing guitars). But before handing them over to their respective new owners we took the time to photograph them and here we have posted a spread of those photos for your enjoyment. Read on for a lush expo on these amazing instruments...

Renée Snyder's CD

As you may know, the CR in CR Guitars stands for Craig and Renée (visit our about page). Speaking of Renée, we've recently added a link at the top of each page of CR Guitars to Renée's website where you can purchase her CD, Once In A Lifetime (all proceeds go to The Jason Tharp Memorial Scholarship Foundation). OK, we're biased, but Renée's CD is just exquisite, and you owe it to yourself to check it out. It has received outstanding reviews, utilizes many of New York's finest musicians and was produced by Craig, who's also no slouch. So consider this your heads up--the link will stay there, but in case it's hard to notice it we'd thought we'd let you know about the treasure that lies beneath.

Guitars On Parade!

The response to our Guitars On Parade list (guitars on order) has been fantastic. If you like to get a jump on things and want to get your hands on a special instrument that is already on order but not yet here just view our comprehensive on order page. There you'll find the master list of instruments that are being built especially for us here at CR Guitars, often to Craig's exacting specifications. Remember, build slots from our luthiers are generally in high demand and in short supply and many of the guitars on our on order list get snatched up before they even make it to our website so have a look and enjoy the opportunity to stand at the front of the line!
