Palelei Guitars is Trent Palelei, an emerging Brisbane luthier specialising in bespoke handcrafted guitars. Trent builds flat top steel string, contemporary nylon, Classical and Flamenco. Palelei guitars have a modern contemporary tone, with superb volume and projection. Each guitar’s warmth and brightness are tailored to customer preference with a focus on balance, dynamism and responsiveness. Palelei Guitars have a striking original aesthetic, with handcrafted inlays and fine appointments.

We create the finest handcrafted stringed instruments from only the highest quality tonewoods along with some local Irish woods for aesthetics. With a James Martin Instrument you not only get an instrument that is so pleasing to the eye but one also that will astound you with clarity, resonance and tone along with the comfort with ease of playability.
