“So what do you do when you need to clear some space in your studio...?

Open a guitar shop, of course!”

Every time someone would walk into the home studio, they’d always say ‘it looks like a guitar shop in here,’ which got us thinking when it came to getting a bit of space back; why not open an actual shop? So here we are.

Of course, the first question that we needed to ask ourselves after we’d sold a whole bunch of things and made some space was ‘what do we stand for?’ It’s not about politics, it’s about music... and as people who have been in bands as long as we have, it’s easy to lose sight of the reason that you get involved in music in the first place. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still fun..! However, as you get older, your priorities change. You get stuck in your ways - the guitar you take to gigs is the one that you left in the case from last time; the amp you use is probably the house amp (it’s not perfect but anything for an easy life..!)... in short, you become comfortable, less willing to try new stuff.. old, decrepit, lazy and..

Well, bollocks to that.

Why did you get into music? Fun. That’s why. Some people play golf (nothing wrong with that) but the way we get our kicks is pratting about on a stage somewhere and looking GREAT (or at least trying to, anyway!). So enter ELLEN’S GUITARS!

Ellen’s Guitars; our mantra is standing out from the crowd and making yourself noticed. Let’s face it; no-one cares if you’re strapping a guitar to your back that is worth £50 or £5k... No-one cares if your amp is £100 or £1000...as long as you look good and sound great, then it’s job done. That’s why we’re making band gear to get you noticed.

Excellent mods & upgrades

Currently, we’re working on a whole host of designs from some super designers and some excellent mods and upgrades, all of which will be up on our website and our listings page on Reverb.com shortly. Also, we aim to keep prices reasonable in these Cost Of Living Crisis times (let’s not let the world drag us down and stop us rocking, right?). Also, for daily nonsense and updates, why not follow us on Insta?

Finally, if you’ve read all of this and think ‘well, that sounds fine and dandy... but what I’d really like is a guitar that’s 100% mine,’... just let us know. We’re always happy to work on a bespoke commission! It’s fun right?!

Now, you’ll have to excuse me... our shop’s namesake is up to no good in the next room and I need to go find out what she’s ruined this time. Her version of fun is somewhat at odds with ours!
