About
I fashion heirloom quality handmade acoustic guitars one by one in my small shop located in Brevard, North Carolina. I strive to make the best looking and sounding guitars possible. I meticulously voice all of my guitar tops, using techniques I have learned from master luthiers, to give every guitar the best possible chance of reaching its true potential. I also always try to use the best possible materials and tone woods for both aesthetic and tonal qualities. If your are looking for a guitar that is truly special and will last a lifetime, then look no further!
Why Choose a Byrd Guitar?
With so many builders out there to choose from, why choose me to build your dream guitar? Thats a good question! If you decide to have me build the guitar of your dreams, there are a few promises I will always adhere to:
Communication is key: I will always be eager to talk with you about your needs and desires for your guitar, as well as provide updates and pictures during the build process. And if you ever have any questions, feel free to ask! I will always be transparent as possible with clients. Shop visits are welcome as well!
Quality Is Everything: The most important part of the build process is the end result. I go to great lengths to make sure my instruments are of the highest quality. If you aren’t happy with the guitar, please see my warranty page.
Price Point: One thing that keeps many people from entering the bespoke guitar market is the price point. Many builders today are charging $10,000-$30,000, or more for a guitar, and very few people can afford that. I strive to keep my prices very reasonable and appeal to players of all income levels. I promise that my guitars punch well above their weight class when it come to price and quality.
