My path towards lutherie started nearly 30 years ago. Obsessive curiosity about how guitars were built led to countless hours repairing, modifying, disassembling & putting guitars back together. While in my late teen years I was hired at a very busy local music store in Keene, New Hampshire. Being the repair tech there for the next 6 years I was immersed in an atmosphere geared towards learning, repairing, restoring, troubleshooting & customizing all sorts of instruments. During that time I worked on well over a thousand instruments (yep I counted!). These days I work out of my own shop in McMinnville, Tennessee building & repairing all sorts of instruments.
