John Page Guitars is pleased to announce its first official artist endorser, Glenn Webster of Canada’s Celtic rockers Fraid Knot. Webster is a Canadian native who comes from a long line of professional musicians. From his youth in the prestigious Brandon University Classical Guitar program, over a decade performing and recording with various groups throughout Western Canada, to his current role as a key member of this much celebrated band, he has always been the consummate performer.

In 2001 Glenn joined the then relatively unknown Celtic-Rock band Fraid Knot. The combination of personalities and opportunity to stretch himself as a multi-instrumentalist was too good to pass up. The group has achieved a great deal of notoriety and media coverage across North America and abroad. Their debut album Hoist the Sails has received strong radio play internationally with feature specials being done on the band across Canada, the United States and into Europe.

Collaborating with John Page on his new P1-SV (aptly named “The Celt”) has really been the opportunity of a lifetime for the musician. “I have no idea how many instruments I’ve owned in my life and to be honest it takes me a while to figure out how many I have now, but no matter how much I loved a specific one, there was always something missing until now. This guitar is my Grail. It’s what I’ve been searching for and every time I pick it up, she just feels better and better. I can’t begin to thank John enough; he absolutely nailed it. It plays and sounds unbelievable, and everywhere I go it turns heads...” says Webster. “I can’t wait to start working on the next album just so I can get her in the studio!”

John Page says that the process of creating The Celt was a great experience for him as well. “I have dealt with hundreds of artists over the years, from the biggest to the not-so-big, and working with Glenn was one of the most pleasurable and resulted in one of my best instruments. He’s an excellent musician and an even greater guy. The music he plays evokes a lot of emotion and stirs the audience… it’s really exciting for me to have one of my guitars play a role in those performances.”
