BR Guitares

About BR Guitares

Since 2016, Adrien Bernard-Reymond has been carefully handcrafting guitars and basses with a different look.

Design
The design of his instruments combines simplicity and elegance. Strong graphic lines but not flashy. Adrien has rethought some elements of the guitar such as the pickup bindings which are not the standard contours but plates that he makes himself which are inlayed in the body to add sobriety. Speaking of sobriety: ciao pickguard! There remains an evocation in the form of the characteristic disc which is found on all the instruments of the craftsman, the occasion to emphasize a beautiful piece of wood or to play with the patterns of the veining. The different species used are an integral part of the look: colors, textures, shades, Adrien combines them with care for a coherent, pleasant and singular look. The natural satin finish puts the final touch to the high class look of his instruments.

Wood
Since the beginning, Adrien has chosen not to use tropical woods, and the vast majority of the wood used is local (France, Europe). Why? We have in our forests everything we need to build beautifull instruments and the different colors allow us to get away from traditions. His favorite species: walnut, ash, maple, sorbus..

Hardware
The hardware installed on BR guitars is of the highest quality, so that you can enjoy your instrument without worrying about your setting. Your guitar is the tool of your expression, it can't let you down because of poor quality components. Installed brands: Gotoh, Schaller, Hipshot...

Pickups
Most of the pickups installed on the BR guitaes are hand-wound by SPcustom, a craftsman located in the south of France. Breathtaking dynamics and clarity, a wide range to meet all needs.
