About Beryl Guitars

Built Around a Passion for Music

Beryl Guitars is an independent UK guitar brand built around a passion for music, craftsmanship, and timeless design. Founded by musician and teacher Phil Preece, the company grew from years of lessons, repairs, and carefully selected gear — before evolving into a broader vision for boutique-inspired guitars, strings, and accessories.

Inspired by Art Deco. Named for Gemstones.

Every part of Beryl is shaped by a love of Art Deco aesthetics and gemstone-inspired styling. From the naming of our string series — Quartz, Emerald, Onyx, Diamond — to the design philosophy behind our future guitar models, we believe that great gear should feel as inspiring as it sounds. Elegant, considered, and made with care.

Designed for Players

From hand-packaged strings to original guitar models assembled in England, everything Beryl makes is designed with musicians in mind. We're not a faceless corporation — we're a small, passionate brand that cares deeply about the instruments and accessories we put into players' hands.

Our Mission

As Beryl grows, our mission stays simple: to create inspiring gear, offer honest personal service, and build products that musicians genuinely connect with.

Designed for players. Built with passion. Inspired by timeless style.
