I received my Powell SFG 021 18 months ago and just love it! I have never heard a guitar with such presence and crystal clear tone and I have played a few in the last 40 years! I play it against my parners Taylor 514c and together they sound exquisite! I also have a Lowden 0-35ck but somehow always choose the Powell, especially for picking. If you are in the market for a hand made guitar, look no further !!

The guitar is brilliant. Lovely sound, great clarity and fabulous action. It is easier to play than the Lowden, and the Lowden isn’t hard, so even my humble technique is extending.
It certainly looks the business. Distinct without being gimmicky.Thanks a lot

I bought a Powell guitar over a year ago. What a pleasure!
This is what happened: 1) I heard Ken playing guitar 2) I discovered he was also a luthier 3) When I visited Ken he showed me different tone woods and invited me to tap them to “hear their warmth and sense their potential” 4) I placed my order; trepidation 5) I was summonsed when the guitar was ready and invited to look at it, hold it, notice it, play it. 6) I asked Ken to play it first so I could hear it properly. Ahhhh! 6) Then I was left alone to experiment and play 7) the guitar came home with me to France. It is warm, it feels good to play, it sounds good.
As I said before: what a pleasure. Thanks Ken.

Beautiful Guitars! I know you have put a lot of effort and care into them and you can really tell by looking at the cool instruments on your web site. I love the sound of your Guitars more than any other and the look makes them even better! :o)

Ken let me play and examine some of the guitars he has built, I was very impressed, I chose the woods for my guitars construction from a wide range of varieties and colours, I was provided with photographs of the build, and I was delivered a fantastic looking and sounding instrument. (wish I could do it justice).

The first time I played one of Ken’s creations, the best I had tried until then was a Taylor - simply superb. However, from that point on the benchmark jumped a quantum leap to the Powell SFG. I never thought a new guitar could still give me goosebumps down my spine. Just try one - ’nuff said.

Fantasic! That’s the only word I can use to describe these beautiful instruments.
