If you like to get your very own U8 or U10 this is the last chance to preorder for this year.![]()

U8![]()
As with the U8 Deluxe, the U8 is based on the original 2008 Touch Guitar prototype. It features a simplified design at a lower price. This model is a well-crafted instrument manufactured to high standards. It is more suitable for entry-level touchstyle playing, while remaining entirely appropriate for professional performance as well. U8: www.touchguitars.com/models-specs/u8basic/![]()

U10![]()
The U10 is a further development of the U8, produced at the same build quality but featuring the extended playing range provided by 10 strings. It’s also a stereophonic Touch Guitar, aimed at players who might wish to focus on and differentiate the instrument’s polyphonic abilities.![]()
