The regional firms with global visions
In South Queensland Martin Pratley is creating unique timbres from native timber.
Guitar making has been a labour of love to Pratley for over 20 years. He spent his youth in the wood shop with his father, a carpenter, before going into industrial design at university. An avid surfer and camper, he pioneered a guitar that packs down by removing the neck and earned a degree of fame for his invention.
At Pratley we our proud to be one of the main inventors of the modern stomp box. We were there at the start.
Used by many professional artists worldwide, including John Butler, Ash Grunwald and Tash Saltana.
