Mr Morgan introduces his collection on his web site, "Playing the classical guitar has been a passion for me for over 30 years and having always played on very modest guitars it was not until I received my Romanillos guitar (for which I waited for so long that I'd forgotten about it) that I realised what I had been missing. I had heard of Torres, Hauser, Fleta, Romanillos et al but never had the opportunity to play these instruments. I was also aware of how ignorant I was about the construction of the guitar and how different they could sound.
"It was after getting my beautiful Romanillos and my subsequent
friendship with Liam Romanillos that I became interested in the
construction and history of the guitar and the gallery is dedicated to
the art of the luthier.
"Over the years I have collected many beautiful instruments but have
always been aware that they were built to be played and not hidden from
view as is the case in some other collections.
So, in order to give something back to the instrument I love, I have
decided to make my collection accessible to players to play and
luthiers to inspect." |
