guitar manufacture Faith
Guitars might not be a big
name in the U.S. yet but
they’re well on the way. What the rest of
the world has known for over a decade

Faith Guitars’ reputation began in the UK
fourteen years ago and quickly attracted
renowned guitar luthier and designer
Patrick James Eggle who joined the team

distribute their line of acoustic guitars in
the U.S.A.

of other Faith series but foregoes items
like pinstripe binding, high gloss finishes,
