About me
As an instrument maker I love to built different and personal things. From wire strung harp to electrics guitars to harp guitars, I like to explore the different and new ideas. My influences are numerous, from the great Viennese school of guitar making, the Genova harp guitars, the golden era American guitar making.
​
Luthiers of the past like Scherzer, Mozzani, Gazzo, Orville Gibson, Larson brothers, Knutsen and Maccaferri, have a strong influence on my making and choices like floating necks on acoustic guitars, internal rods on bodies and shapes.
​
Present luthiers that I have been privilege to meet and exchange have as well a tremendous influence on my craft: Fred Carson, Jeffrey Elliott, Steve Klein, Kathy Wingert, Mike Doolin. To name a few.
