Jennings Guitars
Chad Jennings, a great guitar maker who has a deep passion for the guitar, woodworking and design. It was only natural that in time it should become something special.
I first came across Chad's work in 2015, my shop was in it's infancy but I saw something in his instruments that really sparked my interest and I've followed him ever since. Chad's positive energy towards what he does felt familiar to me, when guitar playing has been part of your entire life it's hard to ignore someone's enthusiasm for the shared interest. Fast forward a few years and I can proudly say that the Jennings name makes itself comfortable, here at the Home of Tone. Making these beautiful guitars more easily available to the UK market, which is something I'm really honored to be a part of and grateful of Chad to choose to do that here.
The Jennings Guitars model range is a simplistic one, this is for good reason & I'll get to why in a moment.
The core of the range is based around three shapes, the Voyager, the Catalina & the Catalina. Why a streamlined range? Well the journey you can take either of the models is pretty much where your mind is prepared to go, as the customization available makes these some of the most personable instruments I've come across. Make it your own.
I'm here as the UK dealer for Jennings guitars to offer in stock instruments, along with helping you through a custom order creating your dream guitar. The best craftsmanship, materials, hardware and electronics. Leave it in the capable hands of Chad, and see why their reputation is so strong and growing further the more of the guitars enter the world.
UPDATE 20/05/2021
I have just confirmed the orders of two new stock instruments due for completion in February 2022! Both me and Chad wanted to shine the spotlight on the Navigator model and have spec'd out two amazing builds. Both of these builds are available, so you can make either yours! Just get in touch to discuss the specs in further detail, or securing the build to your name.
First up, I really wanted to capture the vibes of a classic Tele design wih the 60s Double Bound style models, but with some Jennings flare. So it features Chad's signature textured grain with satin black top and back, parchment binding and another Jennings signature look, the stained/exposed sides which creates a beautiful contrasting look. Then we have a roasted maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, clay dot markers, Mastery Tele bridge and a pair of McNelly A2 Signature Plus pickups. This is going to be a really nice build and I'm loving the spec's chosen, classic meets unique.
For the second build we wanted to spec double humbucker Navigator, and with some influence from the Cabronita design, have spec'd up an amazing build. It features a new Jennings colour 'Satin Fern Green' which is a stunning soft green which works beautifully well in the satin/exposed grain style. 2x McNelly Sparkletrons, with a roller bridge and Duesenberg Vibrato which is a superb, cleaner looking and great operating alternative to a Bigsby. Roasted maple neck and fretboard with the Jennings signature 'hollow circle' inlays. This is a seriously cool La Cab inspired Navigator, with some appointments Jennings are becoming well known for as well as some quality hardware.
Both of these instruments are now on the waiting list, and if you'd like to secure either of them, feel free to get in touch!
