What a fantastic weekend at the Sydney Guitar Show. 🎸

I just want to say a big thank you to everyone who came by the Cilia Guitars booth.

There’s a lot that goes into getting ready for a show like this—months of preparation, long days in the workshop, and plenty of late nights making sure every guitar is ready.

As a one-man shop, this show gives me the chance to connect face to face with people who truly get it—people who appreciate the blood, sweat, tears and passion that go into every instrument that I make. It’s also an opportunity to put my work up against the big corporations that run this industry. It’s a big effort behind the scenes, but seeing guitarists sit down, play, and connect with the instruments in person makes it all worth it.

To everyone who purchased a guitar or placed an order over the weekend I’ll be in contact with each of you shortly to follow up and keep you updated.
If you stopped by and took photos or videos, feel free to tag Cilia Guitars—I’d love to see them.

Thanks again, Sydney.
— Charles Cilia
