Dear friends, check this out:

To mark 20 years of the Touch Guitar Circle (founded in 2005) and the nearly 20-year journey since the first ideas for the U8 Touch Guitar emerged in April 2006, I’m proud to introduce the U8 Deluxe –-Markus Reuter Special Edition.
This series represents both a return and a refinement — a continuation of the design work I began with luthier Ed Reynolds in Austin, TX in 2007, now realised through the craftsmanship of Touch Guitars® in Germany. Each instrument carries the essence of the original U8 design while embracing everything we’ve learned in the years since: balance, resonance, precision, and the physical poetry of the touch-style approach.
I personally curated the production of these deluxe instruments - from the finishes and the headstock logo to the construction details. These are one-of-a-kind celebratory instruments, embodying both the best of the original design and the newest developments in our craft. They are offered at the price that once defined the standard U8 model, a gesture of gratitude and continuity.
Only ten instruments will be made, one per finish, each featuring my “Kopfmensch” logo on the headstock. This edition will never be remade.
Markus
