On the way home, I found myself going through the photos from a truly special weekend at the second @stringbreak_uk .
What Tom Sands has created is much more than an event. It is a celebration of modern lutherie, a gathering built around passion, friendship, curiosity, and the simple joy of sharing what we do.
@tom_sands_guitars is not only one of the finest builders I know, but also a remarkably generous and tireless force for bringing people together. Through String Break, he has created something rare: a place where instruments, makers, musicians, and stories can meet naturally, without pretension, and where the human side of our craft is given as much importance as the work itself.
A special thank you as well to @willmcnicol , whose support, enthusiasm, and contribution helped make the whole experience even more enjoyable, and to the sponsors that supported the event:
@stewmac_guitar
@lrbaggsofficial
@elixir_strings
@ernieball
I came home inspired, grateful, and reminded of how fortunate we are to be part of this community.
Thank you, Tom, and to everyone who made the weekend what it was. See you next year. 😉
