I’ve seen this before…
You may be saying, “Yeah, I’ve seen that on an archtop” or maybe on a very old Gibson. While the Reverse Tension strings going to the tail of the guitar may look familiar, you actually have not ever seen this before. On those other guitars the playing strings extend over the saddle and continue to a tailpiece that holds the strings in place. This is really not a friend of tone. Much of the energy in the vibrating strings is not forced into the top and continues traveling to the tailpiece adding no tonal value to the instrument.
Our playing strings terminate right behind the saddle, just like most other acoustic guitars. You can use any standard guitar strings you prefer. The separate Reverse Tension strings start in front of and continue over the saddle to the tail. Tightening our Reverse Tension tail strings to relieve the pressure of the playing strings frees the top and also applies more down pressure on the saddle. The string energy is forced into the top more efficiently. More string energy and less bracing = Volume, Sustain, Balance and Tone. There are several potential warranty issues solved by the Reverse Tension system as the top of the instrument has been stabilized and cannot pull up nor can the bridge pull off the instrument as has happened to many guitars from the past after years of the 170 to 200 pounds of forward pull from the playing strings.

RT Guitars started as a custom built guitar shop, but that cost thousands of dollars. This limited the number of customers who can get an RT Guitar. Many players wanted an RT Guitar but couldn't afford the price of a custom built instrument.
This put Luthier Bill Martin on a 3 year journey to find the perfect manufacturer that had the appropriate factory, knowledge, and precision to perfect and build the Reverse Tension Guitar line at a price point most anyone could afford.
Our manufacturer is a 30 year + instrument builder and this is his 20th year owning his own China instrument manufacturing company. He is truly a Master Guitar Builder taking great pride in providing a high quality product. (The picture below is his craftsmanship on our Flagship Guitar the 930 series. WOW! We are in awe!)

The selected manufacturer built 51 guitars for us as we perfected the instruments over the past several years. We now have over 200 guitars in stock from our first prototype shipment, proving we are ready to offer this new innovation to the acoustic guitar world.
