How I became an electric guitar luthier
Passionate about music from a young age, I began my musical journey when I discovered the guitar, not yet knowing that it would become the guiding thread of my life. Over the years, I joined various musical formations where the joy of collaborating with other musicians further fueled my passion. This led me to get closer to the music world by joining a music store in Toulouse, where I could combine my passion with my work. These enriching four years allowed me to interact with numerous musicians, listen to their needs, and familiarize myself with various other instruments, including bass and drums.
Eager to share my passion for the guitar, I later decided to offer private guitar lessons (both acoustic and electric) for 10 years in the Toulouse region, all while using my free time to deepen my knowledge in lutherie.
Thus, I delved into guitar and bass setups and repairs while embarking on my initial guitar crafting projects, which eventually paved my path towards becoming a luthier. This self-taught journey demanded a considerable amount of time and dedication (as is the case with any passion), allowing me to learn through hands-on experience, much like a guitarist learning to play music. For the past 7 years, I’ve been crafting guitars and basses, offering setups and repairs in my workshop in Pins Justaret.
Since 2020, I’ve expanded my educational efforts by offering luthier workshops, enabling me once again to share my passion and expertise with musicians who are eager to learn. Guitarists and bassists now have the opportunity to spend a week in my workshop, crafting their instruments from scratch alongside me, following a set of specifications that align with their dream guitars.
