I've been around music all my life. My family is full of musicians. Our great grandmother played everything from piano to stringed instruments. My mother has been a singer most of her life and my father was a harmonica player. Louie, my oldest brother played the Sax as did my third oldest brother, Jim, who played in the army band and professionally in studios and opened for big name acts. Fred, my second oldest brother is a great jazz guitar player performing in the West Michigan area professionally. My youngest brother, Tom, plays bass guitar and is a teacher like my oldest sister, Rita who was a dancer.
My interest in stringed instruments started back in the 70's when I saw a potatoback mandolin that my friend found in his attic. After trading him 2 Eisenhower dollars for it my brother Fred had a music store fix it and I learned how to play. Along the way I would take apart instruments to see how they were built and began inlaying them in high school.
Muggs McGuiness was a vintage instrument store owner who moved here from Tennessee, he fed my habit for instruments and gave me good advice on the repairs that I would do on mandolins.
Since I had been singing all my life I found that playing the guitar was a great accompaniment instrument for me and began working with guitars after high school and have continued that until today (hear me sing and play on my upcoming CD release).
Soon after this I started making my own mandolins (over 20 years ago) and continued to refine my own designs and experiment with strange combinations. This brought everything together for me as a perfect artistic statement where I could make and decorate the instruments that I made my music with.
During the 90's I began to create my guitar designs and put together my own small woodworking shop. At this time I had been working in a furniture shop as a restoration specialist and finisher since the mid 80's. Before that I worked as a sample and pattern maker in various furniture factories. Even before that I was hired to do artwork and repair work on furniture. And all along the way I applied what I learned to the instruments that I would make on my own at night.
Several years ago I decided to start building a guitar business and offer my work to anyone looking for a unique and exceptional sounding instrument ... guitars, basses, mandolins ...
