In 1970 Jez Broun took his 'guitar no 12' to the Spanish Guitar Centre in Bristol for an evaluation. Its director Michael Watson showed him another guitar. 'The difference between this guitar and yours is that Django Reinhardt played this one'. He sold No 12 for £200 which was a decent price in 1970 for an unknown maker. Over the years he has made small changes to the traditional construction of guitars experimenting with different materials and forming techniques but always respecting the classic construction of the guitar face, preferring the Martin style of bracing. Jez Broun plays the guitars that he builds, busking and gigging.
