Kinscherff Guitars: My journey into the life of a guitarmaker was the result of a natural progression. I started playing guitar in 1967. Being the curious person I am it wasn't long before I was experimenting with pawnshop wrecks. I actually made my first guitars in 1978, an electric and a dreadnought. I found gainful employment at the then-fledgling Taylor Guitars and worked there for a couple of years.
In the early eighties I moved back to my native Texas, repairing and building instruments in Dallas. Wanderlust struck in 1986 and I decided to go on a walkabout. After about a year and a half of adventures that included travel in Europe , N. Africa, India and Nepal, I returned to the US and again found work at Taylor.
By 1990 I was ready to move back to Texas, this time the capital, Austin. It was there that I made the first acoustic guitars under the Kinscherff name, and designed the models I now offer ...

We operate out of about a 2000 sq. ft. space in a building located in Reisterstown, Maryland. All the instruments start as rough slabs of wood and are painstakingly machined by hand, using templates and pin routers. Many of our tools have been custom made or modified to accomplish certain tasks accurately and efficiently (i.e.-24 fret fingerboard slotting saw, fingerboard radius sander, custom neck router bits, etc.). I handle all the business related issues and am involved with overseeing every part of the production of the instruments. I also tend to be in the spray booth and the assembly room quite a bit. David DeMarco is the chief design, prototype and production engineer. Brian Burton and Darren Schillaci are the production managers.
1990 was the year I actually started making a few bass guitar sales in the local market place. I slowly and steadily increased the sales by word of mouth. It was a great feeling when I made a sale or when I saw someone on stage playing one of my instruments ...

Cntarasi Guitars:
Mission:
To make a distinctive guitar! One that looks good and more importantly plays and sounds great. A unique guitar that is hand made using quality hardware, great pickups and good tone wood. A guitar that gets better with age. Most of all a guitar that is affordable to everyone who wants to own and play a great guitar!
Profile:
I built my first guitar in 1986. I didn't have the money to buy a good guitar but that's what I wanted so I improvised and made one for myself. The project worked out well and I got just what I was looking for along with something I wasn't expecting. I wasn't expecting to become addicted to building guitars.
I began to build and re-build all kinds of guitars. I tried everything from using different woods and scale lengths to custom electronics and finishes. At one point I even had a guitar with over 100 different pickup switching options. I learned a lot about what makes a good guitar and how to go about building one.
After building more guitars than I knew what to do with for myself, I realized that the guitars that I was building were playing just as well and sounding better than the expensive "name brand" guitars my friends were playing. More importantly, I was building them for a lot less money than they were paying for theirs!
It was then that I decided to go into business.
