REES RAMBLER UK Made

From workshops in Cambridge, England comes a very fine range of unique and custom guitars built by the luthier Clive Rees, each designed to satisfy the most demanding needs of the performing and recording guitarist.

Whilst working with and listening to his many customers, Clive identified the need for a high performance, high quality instrument that could travel easily and be used in unusual situations and places. The Rambler is Rees Guitars' response to these spoken and unspoken requirements and Play Away Guitars are proud to have been selected to offer you two Rambler models from stock – the S and CS (Special and Custom Shop).

And yes, we also stock the left handed version of this fabulous 25½ inch scale (Fender Strat scale) instrument.

Both Rambler models are made from components and woods personally selected by Clive Rees. Each is machined, assembled and finished by hand then set up and tested by Clive himself so whichever Rambler you choose, it will be a unique and top quality instrument.

The guitars below are available from stock but because each guitar is a one-off, study each image carefully. The images show the individual guitar offered for sale and they are not standard or library pictures.

Don't forget that Clive Rees will also tailor make the custom shop model to your very own specifications, colour and finish. If you want to know more about this service then contact Clive directly.

RAMBLER CS Cherry
RAMBLER CS Cherry

British designed and hand built in England to suit the most demanding player, the top of the range Rambler CS (Custom Shop) takes its specification just that bit further...

A compound radius, 22 fret neck varies from a 10 inch radius at the nut to 16 inches at the body and provides the best of both worlds: comfort when chord fingering but with reliable low-action string bending for lead breaks. This is then complemented by a Fender roller nut to provide extra tuning stability and wide string weight tolerance for when your playing demands it. 

Add a pair of Seymour Duncan humbucking pickups, each with a coil split, to give you 5 way selection and you will see how the Rambler CS ensures your choice of tone, voice and presence is as wide as possible.

The handmade body is reassuringly solid and perfectly balanced. The guitar has superb sustain and character and with its familiar and full 25½ inch scale it belies its compact 32 inch length.

This really is a no compromise, high performance guitar built to satisfy the most demanding player who also expects to find familiarity and tradition but in a very convenient package.

A travel guitar? No not just that but rather this is firstly a great guitar and secondly a guitar that travels easily. With its perfect dimensions, perfect balance and perfect sound it is also a guitar that could just become your favourite!

Sorry, this Rambler CS has now been sold - congratulations Rob!

The Rees Rambler S (Special) really is just that, special, so if you are looking for a no compromise, sturdy, hand built, top quality guitar, voiced and beautifully balanced with a full 25½ inch scale and a pair of humbuckers - then you have just found it.

Hand made in England, the Rambler S uses only top quality materials and hardware, twin humbuckers both both single coil switching, superb sustain, a full 25.5 inch scale packaged in an ultra compact 32 inch length so travelling with one is a pleasure and not a chore. The Rambler S even features recessed controls and its special satin finish on solid Korina wood helps minimise those unavoidable knocks and bumps when traveling.

Try the Rambler once and we know that you will begin to wonder why your old traditional instrument was ever built so big and heavy.

Where else can you find value like this for a top quality hand made guitar? 

Our next Rambler S is being made for us now and will be arriving in early August. 

It will be finished as a VINTAGE CHERRY SUNBURST... we will post images just as soon as we can.
