A classic tonewood duo
Crafted from solid spruce, the body top is supremely rugged and can take any amount of passionate, fearless strumming. Spruce is widely relied on for its shimmering, articulate tonal qualities that shine even with incredible volume. Exceptionally broad dynamics also emanate from this heavenly tonewood as well as an even response across the whole frequency range, allowing for a brilliantly balanced sound. Complementing the top are mahogany back, sides and neck. They produce an excellently versatile tone to suit any style of playing. Each chord will be sure to sparkle, carried by waves of resonance - this is the type of brilliance that mahogany is renowned for. Immerse yourself in a dreamy, warm, and undeniably rich sound. A set neck construction then provides even more resonance as well as shimmering sustain, resulting in a magnificently full sound with captivating harmonies and textures.

Luna History
Yvonne Villiers is an accomplished stained-glass artist who envisioned Luna guitars. Her inspiration for a line of guitars designed to maximise playing comfort came from her mother, Hilda Villiers, a bassist for over 40 years. Whilst watching her mum on stage, Yvonne couldn't help but notice the massive struggle her mum had whilst playing. With her mum being petite and using such a heavy instrument, she used to complain of how hard it was to be a woman and try to play these big bass guitars.
Yvonne then questioned if there were others like her mum that struggled with the same problems and pains. She came up with the idea of a woman specific guitar, uniquely tailored to fit their bodies, their hands, and their musical styles. Yvonne moved on to created Luna guitars, a line of guitars made for female musicians of all ages and crafted with luminous visual beauty to engage women's minds and spirits along with their talent.
Yvonne already had brilliant artistic skills and use of colour, she then applied the same techniques as she did with her award winning stained glass work to her new line of guitars. She is known for using rich colours that shimmer and shine with every movement providing an eye-catching design along with the great musical tones Luna guitars deliver. Yvonne's design expertise has led so many men to respond to Luna's well-crafted, spirit-engaging instruments that the company now creates guitars for both female and male musicians of all ages.
