Bruce Paine playing a Panormo guitar copy by Rod Capper

Bruce was the first to play a concert at the home of Rod Capper back in November 2003.......just over 10 years ago.  The guitar Bruce played was Capper Guitar Number 28 which had been completed earlier that year.

In the concert on May 10th 2014 he played on a selection of guitars including the Louis Panormo styled instrument - Capper guitar number 100 - and the Antonio Torres copy both of which were built in 2013.  Guitar number 28 also featured as did Rod's recently completed Prelude guitar.

Bruce presented a varied programme of guitar favourites alongside several of his own compositions.
