My Guitars
I build dreadnought steel string guitars and nylon string classical guitars. I build each unique guitar myself by hand.
Hand Crafted
I build traditional, handcrafted guitars with a deep love and respect for the woods I use. I strive to create aesthetically beautiful instruments with a great sound.
African Wood
My guitars (back, sides and neck) incorporate woods only found in Africa, and chosen because of their special beauty and acoustic properties. I use the finest tonewoods that all builders of fine guitars worldwide use.
No CNC Tech
The guitars that I build are handcrafted steel string and nylon string acoustic instruments built in Africa, the cradle of civilization. I build each unique guitar myself - by hand, slowly and carefully. I only build 3-4 instruments a year. No CNC technology is used.
