Markus Reuter is a musician, producer, psychologist & instructor who has been playing touch guitars since the early 1990’s. He travels the world extensively in his professional life, and consequently meets hundreds of players; enabling him to examine a broad range of techniques and playing styles. Markus has developed a systemised approach to playing touch guitar, which he calls "the family". This method is routinely passed on to fellow players at regular tapping courses.
Ed Reynolds is an outstanding luthier from Austin, Texas. In addition to his credentials as a highly talented craftsman Ed is regularly employed as a consultant for a number of renowned guitar companies including Collings, Lakland, and Bartolini. Ed has worked closely with Markus on the U8, helping facilitate his vision for Touch Guitars by building the prototype and going on to produce the initial commercial models.
