Thank You For This review on guitar-list.com! I keep getting this same type of comment and honestly it all comes down to Wood Grade and I make sure each instrument is made from AAA Grade tone wood.

Being a small business, I'd rather not compete with other companies... I personally own a Martin D-28 and a 1947 Gibson L-7. I love them but I didn't love the prices or the issues like cracking, Bridge lift, binding popping off, warping, keys slipping, neck separation, and a lifetime gaurantee that doesnt cover nearly any of the above unless shipped to a special Luthier... Thats why I decided to create a Dreadnaught of superior hand built quality at a fraction of the price - No warping, no cracking, no binding or inlay issues, No Bridge lift - Zero of these issues - with the best sound possible so even a beginning musician can own a forevor guitar earlier with a sound that makes people stop and listen.

To be completely transparent with you all, I have had one issue with the Original Barker Guitar Case - not holding up as it should. The issue could not be resolved and I now have a new case manufacturer. Now superior hard shell black ABS cases custom fit to The Barker Guitar, Royal Blue plush interior, 5 latches with a key lock. This Case is actually the quality of a profetional flight case because a guitar of this quality needs a case to protect it a lifetime.

Also I would like to add, I personally tested a Spruce top, Rosewood back and sides Barker Guitar for one year in the Canadian Winter hanging on a cold wall, and baseboard heater underneath it. I used no humidity helpers tuned to full tension 440... After 4 seasons I had zero issues with that guitar. Not a Crack. That Guitar sold in 2021 and when I told the customer they thought the guitar was brand new So I can proudly stand behind my design.

When this business was being built in 2019 and oficially started February of 2020, It was taking off to be something special. Unfortunately the pandemic hit in March of 2020, All operations stopped and imported wood costs soared. What stock we had was sold and each costumer delighted but the popularity went up and unfortunately we have been at a stand still..
I am very pleased to announce we are Back! The wheels are in motion once again. We now have stock of Barker Guitar Strings and the Barker Guitar Signature models are currently being built with the same high quality finishes. Stay Tuned and we will update you when these fine guitars arrive! Thank you for your kindness and patience.

What makes Barker Guitar's different from other brands of guitar on the Canadian Market?

The top quality and visual appeal of a classic instrument using higher grade wood than 90% of the company's today.

"The Wood used I am choosing personally for each guitar and that could be a sample in my hands or a visual detailed photo, I look for tight top grain and natural growth patterns in the rosewood and rare woods I am using. The Bolivian Rosewood Model is a fine example of this - These are the guitars I have always wished were on the market and I stand behind the quality 100% and am proud to have my name on that headstock" - Owner Mitch Barker.

These Guitars are Hand Built with New Spruce & Cedar as well as Re-Claimed aged rosewoods and rare tone woods. No mass production and no factory - instead all tone woods are shipped in from Canada, Brazil and other places to a small shop in China, It's a humble family Business who have been hand building guitars for over 30 years and in this time have produced some of the finest and highest quality hand built guitars in existance - Why I chose these specific luthiers is because they have proven to me the wood I choose is Solid, Cured & Treated to prevent cracking in the future and then high glossed like the Vintage guitars we all love and admire used to be - I have had too many expensive guitars I have paid thousands for Crack and to me there is no need for this, Humidity is always a factor but to the extent I have been seeing....it's time Quality comes first over Quantity"
