Most of my recording career as a session musician and recording artist has been documented with me playing a Fender or Gibson guitar until the day I saw these beautiful guitars made by Fremediti! I thought to myself, they look wonderful but how do they play and will I be able to express myself the way I’m used to or will I sound different?
Well after I sat down at the NAMM convention and played the Amphion I couldn’t believe it! I felt like I had played it for years.
Today I use it for everything! Jazz-Jazz Funk-R&B & Rock!

I would recommend Fremediti luthiers to anyone looking for a top quality guitar. They not only full fill your demands, but beside this, they will check your choices in search of the best result. After my choices for the guitar, they recommended several changes concerning the frets, tuners, pickguard and others that I am very happy to have followed. It was a nice experience to built a guitar with them.
Althought was a distant experience between Barcelona (Spain) and Patras (Greece), Bill and George expertship granted the finest instrument, as if they were luthiers living in my neighbour.
I must say that its sound is even more captivating than its beauty. It’s a light guitar, with laminated woods, but its voice is the clearest and beautiful I’ve heard. My Gibson ES175 has a beautiful tone, but it cannot be compared to the VOICE of this Amphion AC guitar. Perfect intonation, perfect crafmanship, perfect playability and perfect sound.
I am in love with the Amphion AC model that Fremediti brothers made to me. I wanted a very good guitar. Now, I cannot imagine a better instrument than the one they sent to me.

I ordered this archtop guitar trusting the luthier and the result met my expectations. I have always dreamed of having a guitar that sounds like an L5 in 16 inch format and Mr Fremediti has made my wishes come true.
Everything is there: playing comfort, lightness, top-notch sound and finish. I enjoy this guitar every day.
Thank you very much!

My new Fremediti Amphion is a perfect guitar for playing blues, jazz or even rockabilly. The pickups are bright and clean and the neck is smooth as silk.
It is now my go-to guitar.

A new guitar in my hands! I’ve dreamed of it for years. It’s here, and it’s even more beautiful than I imagined! Vassilis and George Fremenitis worked their magic!
For the past few months, I’ve been trying to describe to them the sound I have in my mind. But how do you talk about sound, how do you put it into words, how do you express the vibrations, the depth, the openness, the touch, the dialogue, the embrace, the coexistence with a piece of wood?
They felt and understood it all, even the things I didn’t say. They took the confused words of a songwriter who doesn’t play like the typical guitarists and translated them into a living creature with character, personality, and its own voice! It’s what I’ve been searching for and couldn’t find all these years in instrument shops around the world, where my tours took me. I entered stores in distant countries, eager, sure I’d find it. And, in the end, I found it in Patras, made by the hands of two wonderful people!
I have great respect and gratitude for instrument makers and the sanctity of their art. Fortunately, we have many excellent ones in our country (Greece). Vassilis and George left their previous jobs and dedicated themselves to making electric guitars. Their workshop has the smell of wood, the silence of focus, the commitment to their craft, and the certainty of a decision for a humble and creative life. They listen to the instrument, but they also listen to the person who will hold it. They enter their world, understand their character, feel their needs, their aesthetics, their vision. They make their guitars with respect for the artists who will live and create with them. Without advertising, without being defined by the laws of the market, they have managed to make many musicians happy in Greece and around the world. I’m one of the lucky ones!
I’m eagerly waiting to hear it through the big speakers at the first concert of our summer tour, at the Alsos Theater, the day after tomorrow, Wednesday. It will also be the first concert of “Ki”. That’s its name.

Babis Malisianos – Athens, GREECE (Amphion AC)
I am one of the lucky owners of a guitar made by Vassilis and George. In addition to her amazing appearance, her sound has delighted everyone who has heard her.Most importantly, I dreamed of a guitar and got exactly the one I wanted. Finally, the cooperation was flawless, consistent with the times and specifications we had set. Vassilis and George, thank you very much!
Drew DeAscentis – Los Angeles, USA (Orpheus)
I received the guitar and it is just fantastic !! .. It was perfectly packed. The case is exceptional also. The guitar plays wonderfully.
I am very very very happy.
Kevin Schaefers – Bad Homburg vor der Höhe, GERMANY
Excellent craftsmanship, especially the wood works, every detail is thought through, very high quality in every aspect. The guitar sounds great with a full and clear S-style type of sound, the humbucker has a lot of punsh.
The guitar was send to me quickly and the guys of Fremediti Guitars are a pleasure to deal with.
Elias Tsipras – Athens, GREECE (Custom)
High quality craftmanship with an amazing level of detail.
Beautiful musical instruments both in sound and aesthetics.
I had my custom guitar made this summer and I’m very happy with the result.
Vasilis and George are great guys, very helpful and willing to inform and educate you in all aspects of guitar making. Highly recommended if you’re after a very unique result (especially if you’re obsessed with perfect details).
P.S.: Their custom-made pickups are also great!
Rolf Hacker – Stuttgart-Mhringen, GERMANY
The Fremediti Orpheus SE – Semi-hollow – Double cut is an awesome guitar. Easy playability, with the two P90 and the hollowbody a unique sound, holds the tune (also with the bigsby) and the look is exquisite. Not a cheap guitar, but a dream guitar and worth the money!
Michael Tolomeo – Baker Ave, USA
These guys are nothing but a pleasure to deal with… too notch in every way… their guitars are truly amazing to play and look even better… love the pickups.. expertly packed and shipped..even the 5000 mile trip to NJ could only barely effect the setup/playability out of the box… anyone on the fence on one of these, take the plunge.. you will be glad you did!
Filip Sklavenitis – Athens, GREECE
From the first moment I met Vassilis, several years ago, we realized how many things unite us in relation to the creative development of the instrument. This led to me being honored to create a custom instrument with him that best meets my needs.
