We wanted to share some of the events, music and guitar making that happened in 2023! What a great year it has been with several awesome crew joining the team here in Sisters.
The talent and passion that we all share seeps into our guitars to bring out the best in each one! We could not be happier with how life here in the shop is progressing with more custom builds that keep our creative juices flowing.
2024 will be our 10th year in business and I know Preston is proud of the continued success that he started – we are keeping on like he wanted us too. Thanks to all the musicians, both touring and customers that hang close to home, we appreciate you! We value your feedback and kind notes about your individual guitar builds!
See you in 2024 – Happy New Year
We have uploaded many videos over the years – take a look on your YouTube Channel – we hope to add more guitar making videos in 2024 – Subscribe if you haven’t already!
Here are many photos of guitars, special people to us, crew members, guitar building and fun musical times : )
