About Tip House

Sound Focus
I have worked with wood for over half a century, first as a kid, and later as a remodeler, furniture maker, wood turner, and guitar builder. I have played guitar almost as long, in variety of genres from Classical to Bluegrass, and Country Rock to Jazz .I have great respect the traditions of the great guitar makers, both past and present, but I never hesitate to try new materials and techniques when I think they will lead to improvements. My goal as a guitar builder is to build instruments that I love to hear, play, feel, look at, and even smell.
