Harrison Vaughan demos the Jennings 'Double Bound' Navigator at Resonance Education

Harrison Vaughan demos the Jennings 'Double Bound' Navigator at Resonance Education

I had the pleasure of spending the day at a truly superb local education facility, Resonance, last week courtesy of students Harrison Vaughan and Josh Oldfield. The plan was to capture some tones with the Jennings Guitars 'Navigator' I currently have in stock, from traditional demos to jams and soundscapes. Great to watch the two talented chaps work, how they'd set up the rig for recording etc and to watch them play too! Harrison will be uploaded a collection of videos recorded on the day on his own YouTube channel for his portfolio, and you can check out the first of the bunch below!

Stock feature - 2022 Jennings 'Navigator' La Cabronita inspired build

Next up for my stock feature, is this seriously fun, La Cabronita inspired spec build. This one features a Swamp Ash body finished in a beautiful new colour from Jennings, Satin Fern Green in exposed grain. This we felt this complimented the colour of the roasted quartersawn maple neck (one piece board and neck too) really nicely!

Stock feature - 2022 Jennings Guitars 'Navigator' 62 Tele Custom inspired build

Let's take a closer look at one of my recent custom guitars for stock, with a beautiful 'Navigator' model by Jennings Guitars.

For this build I took inspiration from one of my favourite eras of vintage Telecasters, the 62 Custom, and opted for a double bound model, but with some superb Jennings character and unique boutique specs.

Jennings Guitars Announce 'Navigator' - Their homage to an icon

Jennings Guitars Announce 'Navigator' - Their homage to an icon

After months of work, I was really pleased to see Jennings announce their latest guitar, The Navigator last week. I was lucky enough to be sent quite a few teaser photos whilst Chad & Devin were working on this model, and you could definitely tell they weren't content with simply making another 'Tele'. Sure, it would be very important to be true to the design, the reason why the Tele works as well as it does after all! But do so with their own stamp, as well as an interesting ethos behind why they wanted to approach a classic design as opposed to another unique shape to their lineup.

Jennings Guitars arrive, and leave me a little speechless..

Jennings Guitars arrive, and leave me a little speechless..

This has been a long time coming. A lot of planning, trust building, spec decisions and simply making sure that we launch Jennings in the UK in the best way possible. The result yesterday, as the beautiful custom made G&G tweed cases were opened, was something that truly took my breath away. Chad and Devin at Jennings Guitars have created something incredibly special for us, and I can't wait to share more. So here's a tease until then for you kind readers and followers of the blog....

Jennings luthier stories...

Jennings luthier stories...

Jennings Guitars have a really interesting couple of new videos out, of both Chad and Devin talking through their love of building guitars. These guys show real passion for what they do, and ultimately that comes through in their instruments. For those in the UK keen to try a Jennings Guitar out for themselves, then you're in luck. As two guitars from the guys will be arriving soon and you can come and try them out! If you're in the London area too, we'll be at the London International Guitar Show after the summer, and if they haven't sold already I'll have them with me at the show!

Rumblings from California...

I've been super excited about the Jennings Guitars builds that Chad and Devin have been working on for us here in the UK, and today saw the first teasing glimpse of one of the guitars at the final stage. Oh my! It's a stunning semi hollow Voyager model, with a pair of McNelly 'StaggerTron' and 'Sparkletron' pickups, mastery bridge and trem and a wonderfully finished guitar in a mid stain with binding. I'm in love already. Keep posted for more information about this guitar, and Jennings in general!
