Archtop Guitar Makers & Luthiers in Petaluma, California

I create highly resonant semi-hollowbody guitars and am the keeper and current builder of R.C. Allen's laminated archtop guitars. I also build somewhat traditional acoustic and solid body guitars as well as semi-hollowbody basses. When possible I use salvaged old growth wood, especially redwood as it's abundant here. Each instrument is custom built for a client although I tend to have a few in stock for sale at any one time.
