R. E. Bruné; Luthier.
I began making guitars in 1966 in Dayton Ohio, where I worked out of my house. From 1968-1970 I lived in Mexico City, returning during the summers to build instruments at the Dayton location.
During this time I was studying Anthropology and playing flamenco guitar professionally in various troupes in Mexico and around the U.S. In 1972 I moved to Chicago and worked briefly out of the back of a music store before moving to my present location in 1973.
At that point I gave up any pretensions of being a professional guitarist and dedicated myself full time to lutherie.

Boguslaw Teryks - Luthier, Gitarrenbau, Koncertgitarren ...
Gitarrenbau ist mein inneres Bedürfnis, ein Ausdrucksmittel, ein Platz in der Natur und außerdem: „Liebe, Freundschaft, Liebkosung und eine professionell geleistete Arbeit”. Die Gitarre ist doch eine Art Medium, die Sprache der Seele, ein Beispiel für globale, multikulturelle Harmonie.
Jedes Holzstück hat eine andere Herkunft.
Die Gitarre stellt eine kleine Welt dar – einen Mikrokosmos.
Dieses Stückchen Welt ist von Musik erfüllt
Wenn du ihm Liebe schenkst, wird Musik dein
Und nun kannst du den andern bescheren ...
Lutnictwo jest moją wewnętrzną potrzebą, środkiem wyrazu, miejscem w naturze, a przede wszystkim zawarte w nim jest to, co dla mnie najważniejsze: "Miłość, przyjaźń, pieszczota, i solidnie wykonana robota", a gitara jest rodzajem medium, językiem duszy, przykładem globalnej, multikulturowej harmonii.
Każdy kawałek drewna pochodzi z innego kontynentu.
Gitara to jest taki mały świat - mikrokosmos.
Ten kawałek świata muzykę w sobie ma
Jak się z nim zbratasz, obdarzy nią ciebie
A ty resztę świata ...
