PAUL TEBBUTT – PILGRIM DESIGNER

paultebbutt

An accomplished musician, guitarist, banjo player and singer, Paul Tebbutt, is a man for whom quality and perfection remains of prime importance.

 His Pilgrim brand created a real stir in acoustic guitar circles following its introduction back in the 1970’s, and which was available into the mid to late 1980’s. A UK company – based in Leicestershire, Pilgrim’s small-scale production ensured that the guitar’s premier quality construction was always the prime focus, even if it did mean that production levels never ran into big numbers.

The impressive performance ensured that Pilgrim guitars gained cult status amongst players of the time, garnering many accolades and awards, and are still sought after today, and Paul has always felt that his instruments should reflect the lives of the musicians who play them, and enhance their overall playing experience.

‘Pilgrim’ today keeps the spirit of those pioneering early Pilgrim guitars alive, with Paul overseeing all aspects of design and construction. The range has expanded to include a whole host of folk instruments including mandolins, mandolas and finely-crafted banjos, with Paul’s Morning Star range representing the very pinnacle of design and build quality.
