Touchstyle
Home page
Any instrument with frets can be a potential touchstyle instrument. There are a few things that make a touchstyle instrument easier on everyone. We need amplification. An acoustic touch-guitar is possible, but very hard to play loud enough for anyone to hear. We have the use of all of our fingers, so it is possible to play within the reach of piano music, if the range was there. If this is the case, we want more strings. If anyone looks around for touchstyle instruments, there is little to choose from. What we find is that these things aren't cheap. This is what I am going to change. I am offering entry level instruments for about half of any other lowest costing instruments out there
I will offer a few different models for your tapping pleasure. The first two are of a 10 string with a bass and guitar neck. Model l is right/uncrossed (left/crossed). And model 2 is right/crossed (left/uncrossed). I use standard guitar parts when applicable, so there is no heavy charging because I had to special order my necks from Sweden. Either model can be upgraded.


Model 3 is a six string guitar with features that will attach it directly with another Model 3 or model 4. Models 4.4, 4.5, 4.6 are bass versions to complement the model 3. These instruments are created to be able to attach any number of models 3 or 4 together in any configuration.


I will also build touchstyle instruments at random custom settings of my own accord. Freestyle Models are unique and downright fun to build, play and look at.


I will also custom build a tapping guitar to any of your specifications. Anywhere from one string up to however many you need. Active, passive or piezo.

You could be the first person on your block with a Nylon strung 19tet piezo electronic 13 string midi touchstyle with a handcarved rosewood body and hematite and amethyst fretmarkers.
