AMISTAR´S DISTICTIVE SOUND IS SOUGHT BY SERIOUS MUSICIANS AROUND THE WORLD

“It’s a classy instrument with the exact modern blues sound that I’m incorporating into to my progressive sound that hopefully distinguishes me from my contemporaries.
Everybody wants their own style and sound and this instrument has really helped me get my own."

"I love my Stager for the crisp and powerful sound. The neck and fingerboard is very comfortable and the pick up works great and its easy to handle my own tone on the stage."

“The first thing that strikes the eye is its unusual brass-bodied finish, which has been treated to give it a tarnished effect.”

“Fortunately, Amistar gave up mass production at the right time, and took the path to super quality. I always get the right ‘Deep South sound,’ which I love, and which is so typical of the Mississippi Delta.”

“I use my Amistar Stager for bottleneck slide playing because its resophonic sound is matched to that type of music, although my friend Woody Mann uses his for regular fingerpicking.”

"I finally have the guitar. It is beautiful and plays great. Thank you Franta for your efforts."

"A mainstay that appears on about seventy percent of the tracks for the session was a single cutaway chrome resonator with a piezo and hum-bucking pick-up, made by Amistar of the Czech Republic. Mixing mike, amp and di made an interesting blend."

"I'm really happy to be inside Amistar family and I´m happy with my guitar.
I´ve already used this great instrument on my new Cd."

I want that my instrument will be for me equal partner in the musical ideas. I don´t make the compromises in this field. Amistar is the inspiration for the original blues sound in the new music that makes the Retro blues and contributes to the characteristic sound of this group.

My Amistar Stager has actually enabled me to make a dream come true: mixing my funk and soul influences into a more roots sound. It is versatile and powerful enough to indiscrimately play acoustic straight Delta blues and yet harder, crunchier and more electric kind of sound ... And I know it's a sin, but when I play slide my Stager on a good valve amp/valve overdrive combination, it sounds good and it feels good ! So yes, in terms of electricity applied to resonators, there's nothing quite like my Stager!
