Classic Guitars, Amps & Effects For Hire

Hire classic, vintage and iconic guitars - electrics, basses, acoustics - plus legendary effects pedals and amps.

"God's Own" because the guitars, amps and pedals you can hire have been owned or made famous by some of the most iconic guitarists and songwriters of the past 50 years.  Better than "God's Own" because you get to use and play that gear, just by hiring.  This is your way to enjoy a range of iconic guitars, without breaking the bank or tying yourself to a single guitar.

Whatever your reason or need, there's a guitar, amp or pedal for you:

Personal practice

Try-before-you-buy

Band practice

Home and studio recording

Live performance

Film and video shoots

Photo shoots

Film and theatre productions

Themed events and parties

Marriage proposals and weddings

And more . . .

In the end, it's really down to your needs and imagination.  My promise to you is a high quality, end-to-end hire experience, with some of the most iconic guitars and gear in the world.

Hirer Of The Month: Skip Marley, Tatler Magazine

"Rasta in the Palace!"  Skip Marley and a classic Black Beauty in the December issue of Tatler Magazine.  In video, and in print!  Grandson and musical heir to the legend that is Bob Marley, Skip's adding to the dynasty with his own material and performances.  A bundle of positivity to match - which comes across with infectious abundance in the teaser video as he plays "Would You Rather?", and throughout the interview and photos in the hard copy magazine too.  Wonderful piece!

A privilege to have Tatler hiring this 1989 Gibson Les Paul Custom for the video and photoshoot. Skip's own Black Beauty wasn't in London, so this one stepped in. And did exactly the job it needed to. Classic gold on ebony, and a perfect match for the setting.  Very grateful to Tatler for the credit - and a privilege to have this one join the dynasty!

2009 Epiphone FT-112 Bard 'Oh, Pretty Woman', Roy Orbison
2009 Epiphone FT-112 Bard,
'Oh, Pretty Woman', Natural,

as made famous by Roy Orbison
That opening and repeated riff, so recognisable, so iconic, so no surprise that Epiphone decided to put out a signature model of the original FT-112 Bard that Roy Orbison played on "Oh, Pretty Woman". Perfect for that song - and any song that demands the chime of a 12-string acoustic!
1972 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe, Cherry Sunburst
1972 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe,
Cherry Sunburst,
as made famous by Scott Gorham
The Les Paul Deluxe.  Probably most famous in the hands of Pete Townshend throughout the 70s.  But for me it's Scott Gorham, Thin Lizzy, and Live And Dangerous - the first live album I ever bought, and still the best!  This glorious 1972 Cherry Sunburst Deluxe brings it all back!
1990 Gretsch 7594 White Falcon, 
White Duco, 
For Goths, Rockers & Lovers
1990 Gretsch 7594 White Falcon
The White Falcon.  Quite simply, an icon.  Beautifully crafted, lavishly finished in white and gold, the sound of rock and roll, rockabilly, and goth.  One name, so many varieties, it's impossible to pin a single guitar god to it.  But just let this double-cut, tremolo-equipped beauty loose, and they're all yours!
