My Foley acoustic is the MOST balanced feeling acoustic guitar I've ever put in my hands. It instantly feels like a vintage Martin and the attention to detail is apparent instantly. The woods are heart-breakingly beautiful and the tone is angelic. Crisp, clear, warm and articulate. Thank you Foley guitars !

I’ve had the privilege to play a Foley guitar for the past several months. I took time to get to know this guitar before writing this testimonial and can honestly say from experience that Ed Foley’s guitar has a warm, rich tone. While some guitars may have a sweet spot or two, Foley guitars are one big sweet spot. They sing at every fret. Ed’s fine craftsmanship elicits compliments every time I play it. I appreciate the opportunity to have a Foley guitar among my collection and encourage other players to “pick the best.”

I'm the artist relations / marketing director for Alchemy Acoustic Labs. We offer an optimization process for acoustic instruments. I just got to play one of your guitars that Pat Dahms has here in Pittsburgh today, and I wanted to tell you - I think it's one of the finest guitars I have ever experienced.Through the work we're doing at AAL, we have purchased, or have been sent examples of almost every builder's acoustic guitars. Tippin, McPherson, Olson, Bourgeois, Flammang, (not to mention all the big guns - Martin, Gibson, Collings etc) and I've never heard the kind of tone and sound that came out of your guitar today. For the size - it's simply amazing. (I'm not saying that our process wouldn't make it even better - our process has improved every instrument we've ever applied it to - but I'm not contacting you to sell you on us.) :)I was wondering what a similarly configured guitar as I heard today would cost. It was a cutaway with sunburst finish, serial # 234.I think it was an Engelman top, Indian B&S, etc. If you can give me an idea of cost and build time - I'd appreciate it.If you're interested in what we do - I hope you'll take a minute or two and check our website http://alchemyacousticlabs.com, see and listen to what we've been doing. We're also on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/user/AlchemyAcousticLabs. I'd really love to finally own a great guitar.

Ed Foley makes unique guitars that combined superb tone, workmanship, wood and playability. My friend Bill Scarpa has two of Ed's guitars. One was a 0 sized twelve fret brazilian rosewood that sound like a cannon but played like butter. The other was a 000/M sized guitar which had a deep resonance, a jazz styled neck and wonderful projection.
I was so impressed by these guitars and others I played at Ed's workshop that I asked him to build me one. We decided on a fourteen fret 000 sized model but with a slotted head and a slightly deeper body then its Martin counterpart. Ed's internal construction is unique and the complete top of the guitar resonates giving a clear, bell-like sound to each string. In some ways the sound reminds me of a 1930 OM-45 I owned and played for 15 years. The balance of the instrument is ideal for fingerstyle playing. We choose for the body some quarter-sawed Brazilian from Ed's wide selection of woods and a wide grained spruce for the top. The guitar almost plays itself!
