What We Think

This Texas-made 335 style has totally won over everyone here in the office--even the acoustic folks!  The worn red multi-tone finish, crazy fast playability, and those hot, old school-style Rio Grande pickups are all just irresistible.  Perfect for Blues and beyond.  For how much?!  

Manufacturer's Description from Other

I was over at a friend's house in what must have been the summer of 1964.  Someone said "Come see what's on the T.V.!" What I saw not only changed my life from that moment on, but literally millions of other kids and teenagers in America and around the world. The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show actually made me notice the electric guitar for the first time. Afterwards, I remember very clearly drawing pictures of electric guitars on my notebook in the sixth grade before I really knew what they were supposed to look like!

It wasn't too terribly long before guitars started showing up in the neighborhood and being in a band was the ultimate thing to do. Looking back we played some pretty cool instruments in those days... ones that are now sought after by collectors the world over.

Around 1971, I visited a used and "vintage" guitar shop in Houston and it was all over. This place was a funky lowdown hole in the wall full of what most people at the time would have considered junk. I think at that moment I was "lost" to the guitar as a "piece of art," as much or maybe even more so than actually playing it. Within a month, buying used and vintage guitars became a real obsession and I could hardly think of anything except playing guitars and hunting for them.

Before the year was out I had teamed up with a friend and we formed what would later become Houston's oldest and longest running "guitar shop" to date. During  the following ten years we came to be known as the source for repairs, refinishing, and classic instruments in the Texas Gulf Coast area. We bought, sold, traded and repaired thousands of guitars from all manufacturers, acoustic and electric, American and foreign.

A departure from guitar shop life and a commitment to guitar building was a radical change from those formative years. That "obsession" of buying, selling, repairing, restoring, and customizing countless classic vintage and modern guitars soon became the foundation of Robin quality and design. After many hard years of cutting wood and dreaming "the dream," we continue to push forward with new designs and strive for even higher levels of craftmanship and quality.

We get up each morning with one thing in mind... to make a better guitar. Just as a musician creates his music for others to listen to, we at Robin build guitars for people to play. That is the ultimate reward!

Every day we receive calls from people wanting to know about an "old" Robin guitar they have bought or are thinking about buying. What model is this? When was it made? How much did it cost new? This is the greatest! Where is the nearest Robin dealer? Please send more information!

It's responses like this that motivate us to be a better guitar company. Not always easy, but always gratifying. Keep your calls, letters, and emails coming! They keep us going! Thanks!
