Steve Grimes has built arch top and double soundhole flat top guitars for some of the top players in the world. He specializes in custom tailoring his guitars to suit the tonal, aesthetic, and playability requirements of his customers ... Music and woodworking are two very different types of “performing” arts. Being both a woodworker and a working musician in 1972, I found myself fascinated by the prospect of combining these two professions. After studying with a violin maker and working in the instrument repair trade, I set up my own shop in Seattle, Washington, USA and began making arch top mandolins. For the first two years I made mandolins exclusively, subsidizing my new venture by doing repairs on all types of string instruments. When I was able to increase production of new instruments and get them into the hands of some good players, I was finally able to devote myself fully to building new instruments.
Being more of a guitar player than a violin or mandolin player, I found that my interests were leaning more toward guitar construction, and in 1974 I began making acoustic arch top guitars. Soon the number of guitars exceeded the number of mandolins being produced, and new and different models of guitars found their way into the product line. In 1982, I began making two new types of flat top guitars (a steel string and a classical), a semi hollow body arch top electric, and an oval soundhole acoustic arch top ...

Sebastian Stenzel: Classical Masterguitars.
Sebastian Stenzel was born in 1966 in the university town of Goettingen as the son of a university professor of German literature and a schoolteacher. In the context of his widespread interests in the entire field of fine arts and science, he was working with wood from childhood on. He started playing classical guitar at the age of 10, and made his first guitar at 14. At that time already, his guitar teacher suggested he choose guitar making as a profession. However, he graduated from highschool with the intention of studying Physics, but abandoned the idea when he found that it was practical application, not abstract theory, which interested him.
He served his apprenticeship with a local guitar maker from 1989 to 1991.
In the following years he continued making and improving his own classical and flamenco guitars ...
Sebastian Stenzel kam 1966 als Sohn eines Professors für Germanistik und einer Lehrerin in Göttingen zur Welt. Von Kindheit an arbeitete er mit Holz.
Mit zehn fing er an, klassische Gitarre zu erlernen, mit vierzehn baute er seine erste Gitarre, was seinen Lehrer zu dem Vorschlag veranlaßte, er solle den Gitarrenbau als Beruf ergreifen. Nach dem Abitur wollte er jedoch Physik studieren, stellte aber fest, daß er mehr zur praktischen Anwendung, als zur
abstrakten Theorie neigte.
Ab 1989 absolvierte er eine Ausbildung bei dem Münchner Gitarrenbauer Gert Esmyol. In den folgenden Jahren entwickelte und verbesserte er kontinuierlich sein eigenes Gitarrenmodell.
1996 eröffnete er seine eigene Werkstatt in München, in der klassische und Flamenco-Gitarren für eine stetig steigende Nachfrage aus aller Welt entstehen sowie Reparaturen und Restaurierungen auf höchstem Niveau ausgeführt werden ...
