I love music and I love guitar. It’s a part of my life as well as light and colours. It’s a faithful partner that never deceives you, it becomes my refuge when I need to find myself or I want to share my friends’ emotions. Guitar is a passion of my youth, like for many others of my generation. Like many people, Elvis’ music, Hank Marvin’s sound and John and Paul’s ballades enchanted me as well as rock, blues and Woodstock. I bought my first guitar when I was fourteen, it wasn’t worth a rap, but, for me, it was wonderful. That summer, I worked very hard to earn enough money and with £ 47.000, my dream came true. It looked like a Strato... it looked like. My valves radio became my first amplifier, before it explosed, which happened very soon. A year later I bought my first real amplifier, a 10 Watt valvular one, but. unfortunately, its sound was very different from the Shadows’ one.

it by other controllers (switch, log potentiometer, etc.) and switches.
Since then, how many “ladies” l’ ve handled... how many changes and
repairs!
Then, it was time to
produce original instruments in order to satisfy my friends’
requirements.
But, which tremolo bridge could I set up? With locknuts? No, it’s too much uncomfortable. Six screws vintage? It plays well, but its tuning is very imprecise. With two pivots? Little sustain and little range. It was just then that I planned the AB/ST 45 bridge, which has the best qualities of all.
