Let us tell you more about it.

WHO IS TERRY REID?
Terry Reid’s the man who suggested Jimmy Page that he contact Robert Plant and John Bonham for the new group he was forming, Ritchie Blackmore also asked Terry about a singing position, which never came to pass. Aretha Franklin’s stated that The Beatles, Rolling Stones and Terry Reid were the best England had to offer in 1968.
He underwent two World Tours with The Rolling Stones, US tours with Cream, UK tours with Jethro Tull and Fleetwood Mac, The Isle of White Festival in 1969 and Glastonbury in 1970, played at Mick Jagger’s wedding.

THE PROJECT, in words from Terry Reid himself.
“My Relationship with Paoletti grows everyday. Their ideas and craftsmanship is better than anything I came across. Just recently, they contacted me on the idea to make a Limited Edition of a first run of 5 guitars made in the mold my telecaster I had for so many years. I am shocked to see it and I can’t wait to show it to Joe Bonamassa who has my original tele!
These unique 5 guitars, handcrafted to the original are amazingly the same plus some extra features I learned over the years.”

TERRY REID

Terry’s old guitar, now owned by Joe Bonamassa. The story of this guitar is amazing, it is an instrument that carries the top highlights of the musical history, that Terry himself lived in.

THE WORKS ARE IN PROGRESS. THE 5.

Paoletti Team is working on these first run of 5 Limited Edition Guitars, connecting everyday with Terry, in order to make a guitar that is 100% close to his vision and with nice details that carry a story behind. Every single part has a story to tell.

#1 and the parts of all of them 2,3,4,5!

WHY 5?

Together with Terry, we wanted to highlight 5 different moments of his career, 5 years that were special, from the 60’s to the 80’s.

That is why the project is celebrating with a total of 5 Pices, all hand-serialized and signed by Terry himself. Every single guitar from #1 to #5 will come with an hard case that is like the very original, accessories, a book with exclusive pictures of the golden years and different facts about J.Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, A.Franklin…And many more!
