Michael Palm's philosophy on guitar building is to combine superior tonal qualities, and effortless playability in a visually beautiful presentation, to ultimately produce an instrument that delivers more than just the sum of it's parts. All his instruments are hand built by himself only. That is, all processes from design, construction and voicing, through to the hand rubbed finish and final set up being carried out by his hands only.
A marriage of Art and Science is what is required when a musical instrument is created. Michael is an Art School graduate with an extensive background in Engineering and Design, as well as a long history playing guitar. This has provided an excellent foundation for the development of the instruments that are produced at Palm Guitars.
He has chosen to operate independently to assure artistic integrity and consistent quality. He imports the highest quality tone wood from overseas as well as utilizing some exceptional native Australian species.
