Comfortable playing feel - it matters

Silky smooth to touch, the Luna Tattoo Concert prides itself on its sleek playing feel. But that's not all, it has a thoughtfully-designed neck profile too. It boasts an ergonomic ''C''-shaped neck for an effortless, comfortable feel, which creates endless hours of joyful playing. And, with a classic concert body, you not only have an extended playing range and more room to find new melodies, but with its slightly larger body comes more volume as well.

Showcase your talents - live

A design born for the spotlight. Boasting stunning sound and luxurious looks, the only thing left to make this Bari Ukulele Bass stage and studio ready is world renowned Fishman electronics. But even better, a Fishman Clasica preamp system - specifically voiced for nylon-string instruments. It simply thrives in live and studio settings, so expect the tonal magic of koa and walnut to really shine through for a rich, unforgettable performance. Plus, this top-notch system comes with tone-tweaking dials so you can really inject your personality into every performance and it features a built-in tuner too, ensuring you're pitch perfect whether playing acoustically or plugged-in.

Luna's vision...

A beautiful journey. Starting with Yvonne Villiers, an accomplished stained-glass artist, who envisioned Luna guitars. Her inspiration for Luna all began with her mum Hilda Villiers, a bassist for over 40 years. Yvonne couldn't help but notice the massive struggle her mum had whilst playing enduring sets, and then listen to her complaints of discomfort. Forever battling the heft and bulk that basses can bring is tiresome, especially for smaller frames. That heaviness bares down throughout long sets and impacts your performance. So that left Yvonne with her curiosity and inspiration sparked. Dreaming of beautiful instruments designed to maximise playing comfort and entice women searching for lightweight design and comfort to accommodate their curves.

Yvonne knew she couldn't be the only person with this mindset. Sure that others also struggle with the same problems she saw her mum suffer with. With that, the idea for Luna Guitars was born, a woman-specific instrument brand that would be uniquely tailored to female-kind. Perfect for more petite frames, smaller hands, and general playing comfort. But that wasn't all. Yvonne wanted to create a line of guitars for females of all ages, crafted with luminous visual beauty. Not only to engage women's minds and spirits but their talents too. So it's time to stand out from the crowd with exclusive design.

With distinctive artist skills, Yvonne already had an impeccable eye for colour and breathtaking design. Applying the same techniques to her new line of guitars that she used to create her award-winning stained glass artwork. Renowned for using rich colours that shimmer and shine at every angle, Yvonne certainly knows how to deliver outstanding beauty. Alongside Luna's great tone, and a fantastic player-friendly feel. Taking much of their aesthetic inspiration from the connective beauty of nature, Luna Guitars continue to produce spirit-engaging instruments that both female and male musicians can cherish forever.
