Blues guitar phenomenon Eric Gales was born and raised in Memphis. He learnt to play from the age four, imitating his older brothers upside-down, left-handed playing style (a tradition passed down from their grandfather, Dempsey Garrett, Sr., who was known to jam with the likes of Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf). Winning his first blues contest at 11, four years later Eric signed to Elektra to issue his 1991 debut LP.

Each instrument is handmade in Japan by experienced luthiers using the highestgrade materials, with very strict controls on quality and integrity of build.
A great guitar is the perfect combination of aesthetics, functionality and tone. But great design is nothing without perfect execution in construction. In other words, we place equal importance on what lies beneath the surface as to what’s on top!
At Magneto Guitars we believe that a superior instrument will create a better playing experience, allowing you to reach your potential.

The Sonnet represents extensive research in guitar design. Inspired by the classics, the Sonnet shape was tuned to perfection. We gave particular attention to its vibrating areas and to the amount of woods or “mass” that was put in critical areas such as the bridge or the headstock, thus creating a better balance in tone while enhancing its vintage-flavoured character. Magneto guitar case included.

The Velvet takes the dual humbucker guitar to a whole new level. It was designed to have a broader tonal range with fat and focussed mids when played with drive, but with enough treble and quack to serve classic clean tones when required. We have designed the body and neck following our “Tone-Influent” shape concept in order to better control the guitar’s overall tone. Magneto guitar case included.
