Patrick James Eeggle designs instruments made by Faith guitars. This demonstration features a guitar that carries his own name. It is glorious and has received rave reviews in the music press.
The demo is copied, with permission, from the website of a shop called 'Baroque and Roll' which was opened in 2007 by Paul Del Nevo. In 2010 the shop had to close because of the credit crunch. One of Pauls approaches on the shop website was to upload demonstrations of many of the guitars that he sold. This is one such example. He chose to use only a small number of pieces of music so that potential buyers could more easily compare the guitars as part of their browsing experience. I have copied the movies and the audios that he uploaded and I have used Artoonix to re-assemble and edit them as a tribute to his venture.
If you want a guitar whose design and manufacture has been influenced by PJE but you can't afford one of his signature instruments, I heartily suggest that you check out other acoustics made by Faith. I have an FJCE so my recommendation is baed on experience.
By uploading these movies to Youtube I hope to help anyone who is searching for samples of playing on specific models of guitar and to spread the word about a shop that is sadly no longer open. Maybe one day in the future Paul will be able to start again . ?
