I am now retired from active guitar repair work. This includes teaching classes.

I will still occasionally accept students for setup and repair. If you would like to be notified if and when I am scheduling a class, please email me at dogwoodguitars@gmail.com, or leave a text at 614 348-2147. I am not returning calls or emails in retirement, but I will contact names on the wait list if I am taking students. For more info about retirement work please see this page.

Note: Please consider my online course on setup and repair. Info here.
