Pete Smith
 Over thirty years playing experience has made Pete Smith an extremely versatile and accomplished musician. Jazz, Blues, Folk, Ragtime, Calypso, Baroque and Bluegrass all get treated to his blistering fingerstyle technique and become playgrounds for his lightening improvisational skills.
Rated as one of the UK`s finest acoustic guitarists he has gained a national reputation not only as a phenomenal player but also as a teacher and story teller. Regularly receiving standing ovations at top Jazz, Blues and Folk Festivals, few musicians appeal to such a wide audience which is testament not only to his outstanding musicianship but also for being genuinely entertaining.
Since rediscoverering his love of the acoustic guitar in 1999 he has gained international recognition for his unique arrangements and dazzling playing and in 2005 was hand picked by Bob Taylor himself to represent Taylor Guitars in the UK.
In 2008 Pete became UK Clinician for Larrivee Guitars and in 2009 joined Headway Music Audio as guitar product specialist, he can be seen giving concerts, product demonstrations and holding guitar clinics regularly throughout Britain, Europe and the USA.
