Welcome
to
Thomas Buchanan's folkmandolin
When Thomas moved to Cleckheaton in West Yorkshire in 2006, he brought with him over 20 years experience instrument making in the Highlands of Scotland where traditional music is still a strong part of a living and evolving culture.
Through
his contact and involvement with celtic music and with the help
and feedback from many fine musicians, Thomas has become in touch
with the highest standards required by the highly skilled players of today's
folk scene.
Phill
Cunningham M.B.E, The Peatbog Faeries and Saltfish
Forte are just a few of the top artists that are currently using
Thomas Buchanan instruments to evoke the sounds that are at the forefront
of traditional music today.
Quality
materials are combined with unique designs to produce instruments
that are so obviously a cut above. Once you have picked up a
Thomas Buchanan instrument and discovered the ease of play and quality
of tone you will understand why so many musicians just love them and love
to play them.
