Steve Tafra

Steve Thorneycroft


New England duo, EphenStephen, visited our village recently to perform their beautifully arranged version of Bach's Goldberg Variations (originally written for harpsichord). Naturally enough, they ventured to the workshop to test some 'hot off the press' guitars. Steve Tafra (above left) is pictured playing a blackwood/cedar roundback concert guitar, and Steve Thorneycroft (above right) fell in love with this blackwood/maple/cedar Grange guitar.
