The Leo series is a reimagining of the iconic guitars designed by Leo Fender in the early 1950s. A distinct tribute rather than a re-creation, the goal was to design something that looks and feels truly unique whilst retaining an air of familiarity.

The LEO is for anyone who loves those classic F-style designs but would prefer them in a package that is slightly less traditional and more unique. Whilst those iconic guitars have stood the test of time, there is no denying they have certain drawbacks within their designs – the LEO was created in an effort to remedy those made design niggles, and wrap the into something fresh and unique built to last a lifetime without the need for modifications or idiosyncratic repairs.

The four flagship models within the Leo line – T, JM, S and TL – take inspiration from most prominent F-style guitars. 

The LEO was born not only from a desire to create a unique take on these classic designs, but also from the perspective of 10 years of experience repairing and modifying countless F-style guitars. Through this time it has become most evident which elements of the designs can be improved upon. Each having a unique feature set.

Conway Guitars is based in Wynnum, Brisbane on Quandamooka Land just minutes away from the beautiful Manly esplanade, where craftsman and luthier Ryan Conway has over the last 10 years established himself as one of Australia’s finest boutique electric guitar builders. All Conway Guitars are 100% handmade to order & can be shipped to any location across Australia.
