I know you are probably asking yourself what a link for hand made acoustic guitars is doing on this website, but every now and again an opportunity presents itself and this is one of those times. Besides, next to my pets, music and acoustic guitars are two of my other greatest passions.

Every guitar player I have ever known seeks after “the” custom guitar—the one that sounds just like they think it should and looks phenomenal as well. Some years ago, I gave up looking, apprenticed to an experienced luthier (instrument maker), and began making acoustic steel string guitars myself. I thoroughly enjoyed this until health reasons forced me to give it up (My back was not tolerant of long hours of standing or sitting required for building handcrafted guitars). Still, my love for the guitar kept me mindful of great instruments and I would occasionally research builders to see what was new and exciting.

It was during one of these searches that I was reminded in a conversation of Kent Everett and his work. To cut to the chase, he is one of the best luthiers around in my estimation. He is meticulous, creative, knowledgeable and a wonderfully skilled builder of steel string and classical guitars. You can pick up one of his instruments—any of them, whether a Laurel model or a custom series model—and have the sense that he has put his heart and soul into the crafting of each individual guitar. They sound great, they feel great and they look great. They are not inexpensive, but for high end quality acoustic guitars, they are very reasonably priced. Once you play one, you will know you have gotten a great deal in every way.

I am putting a link to Kent’s site on this page because I want to support an art that is in danger of disappearing given the tenor of the economic times. Small businesses, particularly artisans, are finding the going a bit tougher these days. As a small business owner, I know what it is like to pour your whole being into your work. It isn’t a job, it’s a vocation. It is very personal because it is your name on the line each and every day. Kent’s work is superb and his personal attention to each and every customer and his handcrafted guitars is remarkable.

Please feel free to contact me if you have questions about this line of custom guitars. I would be happy to share with you from my own experience the distinct and subtle differences that goes into their design and tone.
