One of my greatest pleasures is hearing my guitars come to life in the hands of wonderful players. Listed below are musicians and clients that have had the opportunity to play an RS Muth guitar.
Kinloch Nelson
Kinloch is an extraordinary fingerstyle guitarist who seamlessly blends folk, jazz, classical, and American popular music with original compositions. Kinloch’s expressive and dynamic playing always reveals the true nature of the guitar. It is a pleasure to hear Kinloch bring out the best in my guitars.“This guitar is a delight to play. It’s response is quick and snappy, the sound is broad and the dynamic range wide and even. Randy set the action low enough for my lazy hands but high enough to bring out what the guitar can do. A winner.”

Lisa Bigwood
Lisa is a nationally renowned folk artist whose music truly stirs my soul. It is an honor to have Lisa as a player of one of my guitars. I can't wait until her new CD is released.Here's Lisa Bigwood sharing some down time with Andy Goessling of Railroad Earth at the 2009 NERFA Conference performing "Big Empty Yard" on her RS Muth guitar.
“well, your guitar caused an uproar at the open mic tonight.... I mean, literally, people were standing in line....it is absolutely the BEST sounding guitar I have EVER heard on stage, it just ROCKS, and everyone agreed on that...”
“I fully expected once I got it home to have that slight slump after being so excited about a new thing feeling...like the reality not living up to how I imagined it...but NO SUCH THING happened...not even a little!! In fact, the guitar is even more wonderful than I could have hoped...it just is exactly the right size, feel, sound, everything, it seems like it plays itself...I LOVE it!!!!!!!”

John Reynolds
John is the proprietor of Golden Age Fretted Instruments and an accomplished guitarist who has played literally thousands of great guitars, both old and new.
Disclaimer: The guitar John is holding is not one of mine. I don't build electric guitars.
“Randy's guitars are a mix of traditional techniques mixed with some of his own forward thinking ideas. The fit and finish on his guitars is as fine as any I've seen. If there is anyone better I want to see it. His sound is very complex and dimensional with a unique quality I can only describe as built in acoustic reverb! You really need to play a Muth to see what you're missing out on.”

His composition, “Long Roads” has been recorded by the Dixie Chicks. If you ever have the opportunity to catch John perform, don’t miss it.“This guitar has a beautiful balance, rich bass and warm treble, and I absolutely love that it is so fingerpicking friendly. So expressive!”
