Thread Name: Tremeleuc (G. Trameleuc) guitars?
Subject: RE: Tremeleuc (G. Trameleuc) guitars?
My second guitar age 15 was an 57 00028 Martin (Owned by Bert Jansch before me) O.K. I was spoiled, she was a beauty & loud. I like heavy medium strings really brings out the sound. 14/5 years later a family man, I parted with her, not finding time to play & feeling guilty about this instrument sat in it's case, hung up the guns. 15 years later divorced feeling to play again started searching for something affordable but that ol' Martin was a hard act to follow.By chance in a guitar shop in Nottingham I came across this G Tremeleuc, never heard of them, but what a guitar!!! Nearest thing I'd found to my old love, both in feel & sound & brand new (I was looking for another vintage) can't fault this guitar & she gets better with age, must be 16yrs. now. I've been living in S.W. France 11yrs. & only one mate here recognized her, he knows Guy Tremeleuc & tells me he lives in Brittany. I've long searched online for info on these guitars to see what he has in his catalogue, apparently I'm not alone, this is the first site I've come accross with any info' & it seems I bought his top of the line model.My advice to anyone(talking real accoustic men here)that finds one, BUY IT!! You won't be dissapointed.Guy Tremeleuc I doff my cap, THANKYOU!!
