NAMM 2025 marks the start of JHS’s sixtieth year in the international products business
With JHS celebrating its 60th anniversary and the 30th of its own highly successful Vintage® guitar brand at Winter NAMM 2025, the MI is buzzing with anticipation, as the UK’s largest distributor of musical instruments will be unveiling a host of new Vintage branded products including guitars, amplifiers and accessories, making their world premiere at this years’ show.
With thirty years of history, and a presence worldwide in over one hundred markets, Vintage is a ‘go to’ brand for dealers and players looking for the ultimate price/quality ratio guitars, and the occasion will be marked by the launch of a limited-edition Anniversary Series of six unique and exciting models.
JHS Executive Chairman, Dennis Drumm, comments on the company’s outstanding achievements and the recent passing of John Hornby Skewes.
“Sadly, in September 2024, our eponymous founder, John Hornby Skewes, passed away at the ripe old age of ninety. His legacy of brand building, service, entrepreneurial commitment, and excellence, continues with the JHS team, which this year at NAMM is focussed on our Vintage® and Rapier® guitar brands where we are rolling out a selection of all new models.
With names like Elektra, Sessionman, Saffire, Galactica, Escort and Rocket, the Vintage® booth is going to be an exciting space.”
Join the JHS team and celebrate and enjoy this significant milestone at NAMM 2025 in Hall D, Booth # 5910….See you there.
Vintage guitars are distributed worldwide exclusively by JHS and distributed in the USA by RBI Music.
