  • Industry giant (and good friend) Ren Ferguson has started his own guitar line with his son Tim, and we're here to help document the process! In fact, not only are we checking out their new factory, but we're actually designing 7 custom guitars to showcase on this channel!! Stay tuned for that upcoming content and thanks for watching!

    Thank you for paying a visit at their shop. Ren, Tim and I worked together at the Guild Factory and I've learned so much from them and will never forget the amazing experience it was to learn from the best. His guitars are and will be the best guitars you will ever play and hear it.

    Wow, guitars made by savior of Gibson acoustics.
    I could never afford one but just hearing one would
    be rewarding. Great video, thank you.

    About time, Ren! Having worked with you for over a decade at Gibson I can honestly say, no one luthier on the planet builds a finer guitar!!!

    I love the set up of Father and Son, and Ren sounds just like a dad, I wanted my son to do everything the hard way, the same way I learned - LOL, I can relate. Also loved the comment, this one is out of Brazilian, it was fun - great stuff! I look forward to seeing and hearing some of your guitars. I would love to own one of the B grade guitars you put out! Ren, I am glad to see you and your son making guitars!

    Yes, the Ditson v interesting and remiscent of the few guitars that Stradivarius built (which you find only in museums) and you could say Strad knew a few things about tone and volume, e.g. get the midrange out, too!
    Look keenly forward to more news and views on Ren and his son's output, it can only be superb..

    Looking at this outstanding vid, can't help but wonder why, or HOW, some feel compelled to give a disapproval rating ("thumbs down"). Well, enough wasting time wondering why for the past 2 seconds, can't wait to see what these look and sound like when Music Villa gets 'em in.
    Since we know that MV is great at not only guitars but monitoring these forums (and ALL comm for that matter!), you ARE going to provide a demo of these when you get them in, right, Music Villa? Looking forward to the email notice on that forthcoming demo vid!

      @@batman48195 - over the years, I've formed the view that some folks just have the need to complain (silent "thumbs down"=complaints in this case) or stand apart by going against the general consensus.
      Anyhow, great to see/hear the demo on these Fergusons so soon (02-24-2021), right?

      Don't believe he deals with the retail consumer trade, only referrals and shops (2:03...that one kinda' silently slipped by). While I understand an extreme passionate curiosity to learn more (we ARE...extremely curious!) more efficient that way from a craftsman's view.

      @@richardhoran6360 - Howdy RIchard. Fyi, as you're probably aware, since these are truly hand built expect a fairly high price. Regardless, reach out to the folks at Music Villa, they'll be able to help you if they can (availability) with the Fergusons.
      Also, be aware that there'll probably be a waiting list no matter which model we would choose. These boys (Ferg) don't use a production line. Contact Music Villa though. Everyone I've referred to MV has been very satisfied all the way from the pre-order (selection, fair pricing, etc) through delivery. You can email them or call. One of the rare businesses who respond to emails and pretty quickly.
      One request from you. Keep this forum posted, updated on your results with the Ferguson.
