Though TWDA (Trevor Wilkinson Design Associates) is world-renowned
for top specification, high quality guitar hardware, the
Wilkinson concern has definitely got its feet firmly on
the ground as regards its approach to component development
and manufacture. That’s good news, because the all-important
‘common sense’ factor so often gets swept aside in the continuing
search for improvement.
Trevor Wilkinson loves guitars and everything that goes
with them. His enthusiasm for guitars is infectious. His
knowledge of the guitar genre is boundless. Plus he maintains
a constant interest in why the best guitars are how they
are, what works and what doesn’t, and what can be done about
it.
He’ll ask direct and forthright questions of the people
who matter, people responsible for the best guitars ever
made, and people who’ve played the best guitars ever made,
and he’ll get straight answers.
Best of all, Trevor’s been around guitars just a little
too long to be swayed by unfounded ‘opinion’. He knows that
that’s the path to nowhere.‘ What we’ve tried to do is eliminate
many of the manufacturing discrepancies involved in making
guitars,” comments Trev. “That way, we can ensure that we’re
making a superior, consistent range of top level guitars.”
Thank goodness for common sense.
